Puig Roja, Mountain summit in Canigou Massif, France.
Puig Roja reaches an elevation of 2202 meters and marks the intersection of Casteil, Prats-de-Mollo-la-Preste, and Le Tech municipalities in the Eastern Pyrenees.
Mountain climbers established the first ascent routes of Puig Roja during the 19th century, creating paths that remain in use by current hikers.
Catalan shepherds have traditionally used the slopes of Puig Roja as summer grazing areas for their flocks, maintaining centuries-old pastoral practices.
The climb starts at Estables refuge and follows marked trails to Col de la Régine, continuing through Col des Boucacers before reaching the peak.
From the summit, visitors can observe the Vallespir valley, the border mountain chain, and the Mediterranean Sea through the Albères range.
