Bordes de Rigoder – Cap de Rep

This is an easy and very scenic route, especially for its landscapes and the views from the viewpoint. Keep in mind that the elevation gain requires a basic level of fitness and essential knowledge to complete the route safely.

We start from the path below the bordes, following the track to the right that leads past them. After passing Borda Valentí, we turn right and climb parallel to the Llosada River.

Just before reaching a farmhouse, on the left we find the entrance to the trail that leads us uphill, with a steep initial climb that becomes gentler towards the summit of Cap de Rep. From this point onwards, we follow yellow trail markers.

Pay close attention when reaching the first meadow (km 2.4), which we cross along its lower section following a faint footpath. Shortly afterwards, we turn sharply uphill across the grass, climbing straight for about 200 metres before turning right (the trail is not very visible at this point).

We then reach another meadow where we see a signpost that, clearly marked and again following yellow trail markers, leads us to the summit. The views over Encamp, Engolasters and Bony de les Neres are outstanding. At the top, we find unique wooden benches where we can stop and enjoy the scenery.
