Puig Neulós

Highlight • Summit

Puig Neulós is the highest point of the Albères massif. It marks the Franco-Spanish border.
If we refer to the toponymy, this 1,256 meter summit is often in the clouds. In fact “neulós” means covered in clouds in Catalan.

Loop mainly on DFCI tracks. Doable on a gravel bike, but with good shoulders as the descent is very rocky, even stony... Very beautiful panoramas from the peak and during the descent.
