Snowshoes to Bastiments Peak, Vallter

Snowshoeing in Pic de Bastiments - Vallter 2000

Discover Pic de Bastiments on snowshoes and enjoy the majestic beauty of Vallter 2000. Located in the heart of the Eastern Pyrenees, this region is famous for being the birthplace of the Ter River and is surrounded by peaks that exceed 2700 meters in altitude. From here, you can admire stunning panoramic views of Canigó, Cap de Creus, and, on clear days, you might even see the sea and Montserrat.

This snowshoeing excursion is ideal for experienced adventurers due to the elevation gain that must be overcome. We start from near the Ulldeter Refuge, situated at 2393 meters, and ascend through mountainous terrain until reaching the summit of Bastiments at 2881 meters. The descent follows the same path, offering a complete and challenging experience.
