Pic de Clavera, Mountain summit on the French–Spanish border, Ariège, France
Pic de Clavera is a 2,721 meter summit in the Pyrenees with steep rocky slopes and exposed stone faces that define the high mountain environment. The terrain around the peak consists of sharp ridges and narrow passages carved by erosion over thousands of years.
Pic de Clavera reaches 2,721 metres on the watershed between the Pallars Sobirà comarca of Catalonia, in the municipality of Alt Àneu, and the commune of Eras Bòrdas de Les in Ariège, France. Its inclusion in the FEEC's list of the 100 cims made it a recognised objective for Catalan hiking clubs, which record ascents of the summit.
The summit appears on the FEEC's list of the 100 Cims, a Catalan hiking challenge, so it draws walkers counting off the peaks on that roster. The border itself is administrative: the summit is shared by Alt Àneu, in Pallars Sobirà, and Eras Bòrdas de Les, in Ariège.
The climb requires solid equipment, water, and experience with steep terrain and some technical rock sections along the route. Starting early in the day helps ensure you have enough daylight for the ascent and descent.
Pic de Clavera is one of the 100 summits listed by the FEEC, the Catalan Federation of Hiking Clubs, so its 2,721-metre top is a recognised objective for Catalan mountaineers. The summit line also marks the border between the Pallars Sobirà comarca and the Arieja department.
