Pic de l'Infern

Pic de l'Infern, Mountain peak in Fontpédrouse, France

Pic de l'Infern is a 2,869.5-metre summit in the eastern Pyrenees, at the southern end of the Fontpédrouse commune in Conflent, near the Queralbs municipal boundary. Its main ridge runs diagonally to a pointed crest, with bare scree and shattered rock in pale grey, tan and brown; darker rock bands break the lighter stone near the top.

The summit lies at the southern edge of the commune of Fontpédrouse, in Conflent, close to the border with Queralbs in Ripollès. It is often confused with the neighbouring Pic dels Gorgs to its south. The peak is listed among the 100 summits of the FEEC, a Catalan hiking federation catalogue.

The name Pic de l'Infern ("peak of hell") is explained by the summit's exposure: separated from the Bastiments–Pic del Freser axis by cut ridges, it is said to attract lightning during electric storms. The peak is listed among the 100 cims of the FEEC, the Catalan hiking federation's catalogue of 100 summits.

The climb requires proper mountain gear and takes about six hours round trip from the nearest parking area. Weather conditions change quickly at this elevation, so starting early in the day and checking the forecast beforehand is important.

The name Pic de l'Infern is thought to come from the peak's tendency to attract lightning during electrical storms, since it is cut off from the Bastiments-Pic del Freser axis by notched ridges. The neighbouring Pic dels Gorgs is often mistaken for this summit. The peak is on the FEEC list of 100 summits.
