Very nice hike, where it must be very very hot in the early afternoon. But really very pretty

Translated by Google

Wonderful short tour (can be extended at will, mountain hut, glacier ...). Duration around 3 hours and 6.5 km (My recording does not quite fit because it has paused in the meantime. The path is well trodden and cannot be missed and can be easily recognized from my photos) Right behind Ordesa and Gavarnie on my list of the best. Parking spaces are scarce. But we, as always late, caught someone upstairs after around 10 minutes, since the first ones were back around 12, and we drove.
