Route

Starting from Pla de l’Ermita, the route first follows the road towards the Boí Taüll Ski Resort. After 3 kilometres, it veers onto an old trail leading to the resort’s entrance. From there, the trail ascends along a path through the resort, climbing to the Cap de Vaques Viewpoint at 2,310 meters. From the viewpoint, you’ll enjoy breathtaking panoramic views before starting a steep and technical descent, mostly off-trail, through open meadows. At Collada de la Llobarçana, the route joins a track that serves as the boundary between the Durro and Taüll mountains. At the end of this section, another steep, technical off-trail descent leads through meadows to the ski resort road, which you follow back to Pla de l’Ermita.

Observations

Caution: This is a physically and technically demanding route with sections that lack defined trails. Suitable only for experienced bikers accustomed to off-trail riding.
Snow is often present on the route until late spring.
Part of the old resort trail passes through the peripheral protection zone of the Aigüestortes and Estany de Sant Maurici National Park.
