Puig de la Calma

The Puig de la Calma peak rises to 604 meters above sea level, featuring steep rocky sections along the ascending path through Mediterranean vegetation.

The summit stands as a natural border marker between France and Spain, established during territorial agreements that shaped the modern Pyrenean frontier.

Local shepherds traditionally used the paths around Puig de la Calma for seasonal livestock movement between mountain pastures in the Massif des Albères.

The hiking trail begins at Coll de Banyuls parking area and covers 6.22 kilometers with yellow markings guiding visitors through a moderate difficulty path.

A small stone cairn marks the summit point, where hikers can observe both French and Spanish territories while standing at the geographical boundary.
