In the first stage, from the Conangles refuge, still in the Aran Valley, we will immediately enter the Alta Ribagorça region to go all the way up the Besiberri Valley. 



During the ascent, we will enjoy the different lakes and the impressive glacial cirque crowned by the well-known ridge of the Besiberris. Through a slightly decomposed chimney we will gain the col d'Abellers from which we will have the Besiberri S already very close. 



From the top we descend a few meters towards the Comoloforno to find the gap that will give us access to the Cavallers slope. From here we have a very long, technical and entertaining descent to the Rio Malo plateau. At this point, to finish the stage, we will take the usual path to access the Ventosa i Calvell refuge.

This second stage is relatively less demanding in terms of distance and elevation gain. We will leave the Ventosa hut in the direction of the Tumeneia Ponds, bordering them to the east and take the path that ascends to the Tumenia pass. The descent to the Restanca refuge is easy from the pass.

Variant Peyta-Besiberri Gap N
From the Ventosa hut skirt the Tumeneia Lakes to the south and continue towards the Collet des Isards to reach Brecha Peyta. It is a difficult navigation route. You must be very attentive not to miss the milestones.
If we are prepared, experienced and have the right equipment, before Brecha Peyta we can temporarily detour to reach the Besiberri Nord. For this stage we can hire a mountain guide (check availability and prices with the organization).



From the vicinity of Brecha Peyta, depending on the weather, conditions and abilities of the group, it is possible to complete the ascent to Besiberri N (PD+, III obligatory, recommended rappel), and return to Brecha Peyta to continue the stage. 



From Ventosa Refuge to Restanca Refuge
Distance: 5,20 km. Elevation gain: +415 -606.

From Refugio Ventosa to Refugio Restanca with the Besiberri N summit.
Distance: 11,80 km. Elevation gain: +1110 -1185.

The third stage is the longest but has a contained slope and passes through better terrain for walking, after the previous stages through much more uneven and pre-draggy terrain. 



We leave the Restanca Refuge to go up the Val de Rius to the Rius Lake. Here we leave the mythical GR-11 to gain the gentle Coret del Redon where we discover magnificent views over the Redon Lake and the Tuc deth Pòrt de Vielha, with the spectacular backdrop of the Molières or Mulleres, the Aneto and the Maladetas. 



After topping the aforementioned Tuc deth Pòrt de Vielha, we will descend to the historic pass of Pòrt de Vielha and continue the descent to the south again towards Conangles, starting point and end of route.
