Pic de Laraille

The Pic de l'Arraille reaches an elevation of 2,147 meters, featuring steep slopes and natural pathways that lead to its distinct peak formation.

This mountain peak has served as a natural boundary marker between France and Spain since the establishment of territorial borders in the Pyrenees range.

Local shepherds maintain traditional grazing practices on the mountain slopes, continuing centuries-old agricultural methods of the Pyrenean communities.

Hikers can access the summit through marked trails from Arette, with the ascent requiring appropriate mountain gear and approximately six hours of climbing.

The summit provides an observation point for migration patterns of large birds, including vultures that frequently circle the mountain's thermal currents.
