> Hike the Hard Carros de Foc in 5 epic stages
> Cross rugged cols and high passes deep in the Pyrenees
> We’ll reserve all your nights in the best refugis of Aigüestortes
Imagine starting your day above a sea of clouds, with nothing but jagged peaks, icy lakes, and the crunch of your boots for company. This isn’t a walk in the park. This is the Hard Carros de Foc. A 5-day, no-nonsense loop through the high Pyrenees of Aigüestortes i Estany de Sant Maurici. Think long days, big elevation, and the kind of solitude you only get when the rest of the world is far below you.
The Hard Carros de Foc is the grown-up, turned-up version of the classic route. Fewer days, tougher stages, and more time above the treeline. You’ll overnight in some of the most beautifully remote refugis in the Spanish Pyrenees, from Amitges to Ventosa i Calvell, and finish in Espot with a head full of views you won’t forget. If you’ve done the Alps, the Dolomites, or even the Alta Via 2, and want a Pyrenean punch this is it.
