Panoramic climb: The Red Peak of Bassiès
Located on the edge of the Ariège region, between Couserans and Vicdessos, this 2,676-meter granite peak is reached via a demanding route through a high-mountain, rocky landscape. We will enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding area almost the entire way. Numerous lakes dot the route, notably the Bassiès lakes, a series of lakes that are particularly magnificent.
