Vallter's pot

Circular Itinerary located in El Ripollès, Ulldeter within the Capçaleres del ter-Freser Natural Park, Circular route with a great positive difference in level and with more than 13 kms, where we will go to the most emblematic peaks of the ulldeter area, others of less emblematic , but they have nothing to envy their competitors.

We will discover a corner of Ripollès that will surely not leave us indifferent. we can see, as long as they leave us animals like the famous Isard.

​

We will leave the car park of the Refuge of Ulldeter , from here we will already visualize part of the route, the grain of small buckwheat with 2567msnm and grain of large buckwheat 2712 msnm, once in the refuge of olldeter we will deviate the left to go up to the small buckwheat grain, by an out-of-step scree, combining with climbing steps, a very entertaining stretch that will surely not leave us indifferent, once in the small buckwheat grain, we will only have to careen to the Great buckwheat grain, where we will have privileged views and we will see the route that remains to be done, where we will have right in front of the top of the Bastiments.

From the Gran de fajol Gran we will go down to the pass of the marrana and we will take course to the Pic de Batiments 2883msnm, in the initial section it will go up gradually until we reach the final section where the difference in level is noticeable, all the time has no technical difficulty.

Once on the scaffolding we will have reached the highest point of the whole day, where we will have a great overview of what we have done and what we need to do.

Now we will go to the neck of bacivers for a stony descent pro easy, that if we have to be careful once in the neck we will go up to the top of the Pic de Prats de Bcivers 2844msnm, we are missing less.

When we get to  Prats de Bacivers we will go down to the lake of Bacivers or Morens where it is waiting for its visitors, a bucolic place, without any doubt, now we will have to go up to the neck of the Giantess,  we have little left!

From this point we can look at everything we have done and what we have left to do, which is not enough. From the Coll de la Geganta we will careen until we reach the peak of the Umbriaga 2639msnm

We will continue careening until we reach the top of the Pic de La Dona 2702msnm, again we will have a privileged view of the route we have taken. Once we reached the Mentet pass ,  we will head to the vallter 2000 ski slopes and get down to the car! Where a little snack will be waiting for us to regain strength!
