Pic de Vallhiberna

The Tuca de Vallibierna rises to 3067 meters in elevation, featuring two distinct peaks connected by a sharp mountain ridge called Paso del Caballo.

Charles Packe completed the first recorded ascent in July 1865, accompanied by guides Firmin Barrau and Charles, while Roger de Monts achieved the first winter climb in 1900.

Local communities refer to this peak as Piedras Blancas in the Castanesa valley due to its white rocks contrasting with the surrounding iron-colored mountains.

Climbers can start their journey from Pla de Senarta, located 6.6 kilometers above Benasque, where a municipal camping site provides accommodation and bus services.

The western summit, known as Culebras, earned its name from the snake-like patterns visible on its northern face, creating distinct geological formations.
