Autumnal images that bring us closer to winter. In The Photos of the Readers of La Vanguardia we can contemplate the snow-covered Olla de Núria from the train track of the R3 line of Rodalies as it passes through Campdevànol, in the Ripollès region.
From Campdevànol we have a good view of the eastern Pyrenees, for example, of Mount Puigmal. The head of the valley was historically a strategic crossing point between Old Catalonia and Northern Catalonia and currently marks the border between the Ripollès region and the French region of Alta Cerdanya.
In Olla de Núria we can take a very complete circular route linking all the peaks, an itinerary that is very popular among hikers who love the mountain.
The route leaves the sanctuary of Núria to ascend first to Puigmal (2,913 m), from where, following clockwise, the peaks of Segre (2,843 m), Finestrelles (2,828 m), Eina (2,789 m), are then crowned. Noufonts (2,861 m), Noucreus (2,799 m), Fossa del Gegant (2,808 m), Fontnegra (2,728 m) and Àliga (2,422 m), from where you descend again to the sanctuary.
La Olla de Núria stands out for its natural and landscape values. So much so that in 2015 the Cabeceras del Ter and Freser Natural Park was established.
