Puig de la Collada Verda

Puig de la Collada Verda is a mountain summit in the Pyrenees rising to 2,403 meters with rocky slopes and expansive views of the surrounding peaks and valleys.

The summit area shows evidence of past land clearing work where stone piles remain from efforts to create pasture lands for herds. This activity reflects long-standing pastoral traditions that shaped the landscape over many generations.

The mountain path follows the GRP Tour du Canigou trail system, marked with red and yellow indicators according to French hiking route standards.

The route is marked with red and yellow signs along established hiking paths, making navigation straightforward. Plan for a mountain hike requiring proper boots, water, and sun protection for exposed terrain.

Hikers encounter the Pastoral Cabin of Forquets and a pass marked by white rocks that form natural landscape boundaries along the route. These pale stones serve as a distinctive landmark visible from various points on the trail.
