Puig del Coll d'Eina

The Puig del Coll d'Eina rises to 2772 meters, forming a natural boundary between the municipalities of Queralbs in Spain and Fontpédrouse in France.

The mountain has served as a geographical marker of the French-Spanish border since the Treaty of the Pyrenees was signed in 1659.

Local mountaineering groups from both sides of the border maintain traditional annual gatherings at the summit to celebrate Franco-Spanish mountain heritage.

Multiple hiking trails lead to the summit from both countries, with the Spanish route starting in Queralbs and the French path beginning in Fontpédrouse.

The mountain structure combines sandstone and lutite formations, creating specific geological patterns that attract researchers from European universities.
