After enjoying a delicious breakfast at your hotel, you'll leave the village at an altitude of 3,000 feet behind to head back up into the mountains. Today will be one of your bigger climbing days as you continue your point-to-point run from the town up into the mountains. Part of your course today overlaps with the famous vertical kilometer from Vielha as well as UTMB's Val d'Aran race. After making your way up steep mountain climbs punctuated with runnable singletrack, you'll enjoy ridge running for several miles of views before dropping into the valley of our mountain hut. You have the option of extending on a few minutes further down the trail to enjoy an idyllic spot for a dip or snack alongside cascades of blue pools of water.
You'll be reunited with our larger luggage at the refugi, so all you need to carry today is your normal running pack. With a terrace that invites you to sip a a coffee or beer and enjoy the view of craggy mountains covered by green hillsides, you'll wish you could stay for just more than one evening.
