The theme of this leg of the trip was "waterfalls and wildflowers". I'm certain we saw at least 50 types of wildflowers in bloom. We walked up the river's path as it tumbled down the PyreneesRead more
Climbing the pass was difficult for these flat landers for sure.
The highest point of the hike.
A welcome sight after 11 hours of hiking.
A welcome rest on the trail.
We passed through the village of Espinal today.
Today's theme was roses and pines. Just about every time we stopped there were wild roses in view. After we passed through the cow pastured we entered pine forest.
Much of the last 2/3 of the trail followed a pine ridge populated with wild roses and again multiple wildflowers in bloom.
