Pic dels Moros, Mountain summit in Targasonne, France.

Pic dels Moros is a granite summit in the Cerdagne area with rocky surfaces that offer expansive views on clear days. The surrounding landscape consists of alpine meadows and rocky slopes that give the location a rugged, open character.

The mountain received its name from the Catalan language and was also called Pic des Mauroux in different historical periods. This naming diversity shows how various cultures have influenced the region over time.

The name comes from Catalan language and reflects the local heritage of this mountain region. Visitors can sense the connection to Cerdagne traditions today, where mountain communities have shaped how people relate to these high peaks.

The ascent follows the PR71 hiking path, a circular route starting from the parking area at La Calme and requiring about two hours of walking time. Visitors should bring sturdy footwear and check weather conditions, as the mountain can become foggy quickly.

The mountain has become known as a venue for international paragliding competitions, attracting pilots from around the world. The steep slopes and wind conditions make it a preferred location for those who enjoy aerial sports.
