Trip-summary
A nice & easy stroll from Puigcerda (where Karin and I are spending a few days) to Bourg-Madame and back. We cross the border-bridge and make a loop in Bourg-Madame .

Bm480 : both markers
This bridge crosses the river Rahur which is the border for ± 1,5 km here. In
the middle of the bridge you see the two markers right and left. Along
the river there are several double bordermarkers: one at the French
side, one at the Spanish side.

Bm483
We made a loop in Bourg-Madame and got back to the border at the sw-side of the village where we found this bm.
Another one - probably bm484 - was spotted further on in the fields (no picture made for whatever reason).

Bm481fr
While walking back to the borderbridge along the river, we stumbled on this peculiar bm: a metal plate in the streetsurface.

Bm481fr
In close-up. Note that this is one of two bordermarkers 481 on either side of the river. A passerby told us that there was a similar plate back in the street. That had to be bm482 but we couldn't find it. |
