Pic de Médécourbe

Pic de Médécourbe, Mountain summit in northern Pyrenees, Andorra.

Pic de Médécourbe is a mountain summit in the northern Pyrenees reaching approximately 2,900 meters, with rocky formations and alpine vegetation covering its slopes and ridges. The landscape around the peak combines open grasslands with exposed rock outcrops and steep terrain.

The first documented ascent was made on 8 August 1866 by three Spanish soldiers, Manuel Oncín, Santos Gil and Eusebio Eira, working for a topographic commission. The summit later became the western tripoint of Andorra, France and Spain, one of the two ends of the Andorran-French and Andorran-Spanish borders, alongside the Portella Blanca d'Andorra.

The name comes from the Catalan "pic", a pointed summit, as opposed to the rounded "tossa" and "bony" common in Andorran toponymy. The peak is the western tripoint of Andorra, France and Spain, standing on the watershed between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. It lies within a trinational protected area: the Parc Natural Regional dels Pirineus Ariègois, Andorra's Parc Natural de les Valls del Coma Pedrosa and Catalonia's Parc Natural de l'Alt Pirineu.

The ascent from Arinsal village follows the GR11.1 hiking trail toward Refugi del Pla de l'Estany, taking about 4 to 5 hours to reach the summit. The route passes through steep mountain terrain, so sturdy footwear and good fitness are needed for the walk.

A metal rod marks the summit and serves as a clear visual reference from a distance. From this point, walkers can look down at the Estanys Forcats lakes and see across to neighboring mountain ranges.
