From the Mountain Hut at Viadós, we shall approach the massif of Possets whose grandeur brings to mind Himalayan landscapes. Thanks to three other Mountain Huts conveniently located around this massif we can follow a circular route around it. In three days we can walk around this inmense granite formation located at the very heart of the Pyrenees. The best time of the year would be July when the mountain passes are free of snow. If we go in the fall, we will enjoy the intense colour of the beech forests and the black pine trees will make us wonder if we are not lost in some dark Canadian woods… Towering above us is Posets, the second highest peak in the Pyrenees. It attracts both veteran climbers as well as beginners who need to be initiated in mountaineering skills. Our route will take us to mountains lakes at Llardaneta, la Plana or up to the “needles” of Perramon….See you there!
