Trip-summary Part of a five-day trip from the Mediterranean sea to Le Perthus and a bit further. Day 1: from Portbou to close to bm596 Start ± 16.00, 19.30 stop . It was nice weather, sunny but a litte hazy, not to warm. Walking: ± 3½ hours Climbing: ± 600 meter Descending: ± 100 meter |
 |
From Portbou, looking at the coast. I climb along the road en straight over a hillside to |
 |
the borderpass, the Col des Balitres. |
 |
Bm600, a bit further from the road then I remember. |
 |
Looking back at the borderridge with its last kilometers to the mediterranean coast. |
 |
Bm599, easy to find. |
 |
This is a perfect time for walking the Albères-borderridge, an abundancy of spring-flowers. |
 |
Bm598, easy to find. Then there's a very pretty trail, climbing to Torre de Querroig. |
 |
Bm597 |
