From the pass, the view is majestic: in front of us lies the Vall d’Unhòla, enclosed by peaks such as Cap des Closos and Tuc Blanc de Parros. The descent begins on a wide track where the vegetation is sparser, contrasting with the greenery of the previous valley. The Unhòla river, with its characteristic brownish-reddish waters due to the presence of iron oxides and hydroxides, accompanies us for the last few kilometres until we reach Bagergue, the highest village in the Val d’Aran. We continue down the road until we reach Salardú, the end point of the stage.
