Trip-summary Part of a 8-days hike around the two tripoints of Andorra and neighbouring bordermarkers with in between public transport from Auzat to Porte Puymorens. A long day with many highlights. Especially standing on the Pic de Camp Colomer with its 360 degrees panorama of the mountains. Cloudless sky, hardly any wind. Walking: 8 hours. Ascending: ± 1200 meters. Descending: ± 900 meters. |

Starting at 08.30 . Luc from Belgium was my 1-day-companion |
 |
Approaching the Portella Blanca, the "white pass" with bm427 |
 |
Bm427, the eastern tripoint of Andorra. I was here before at 18 august 2001 See also my special webpages on The tripoints of Andorra |
 |
I walked up the ridge to the south to make this overview. |

In 2 hours I climb to the Portella d'Engors and from there I follow the ridge to
Pic de Camp Colomer. There's this faboulous view on the Portella Blanca and the Andorran mountains. |
 |
I kept following the ridge to Portella de Meranges with bm428. At this picture I'm looking back at the ridge. |
 |
Bm428, the number is hard to read. |
 |
From the Portella de Meranges I descend to this camping-spot. It has been a wonderful day but now it's cooling down pretty quickly. |
