Pic de l'Estany Mort, Mountain summit between Canillo, Andorra and Aston, France

The Pic de l'Estany Mort reaches an elevation of 2,746 meters and stands as a natural boundary marker between Andorra and France in the Pyrenees mountain range.

The mountain peak has functioned as a critical geographical boundary point since the establishment of borders between France and Andorra in the medieval period.

Local mountain guides regularly share knowledge about traditional Pyrenean navigation methods and weather prediction techniques with visitors ascending the peak.

Winter ascents require specialized equipment including crampons and ice axes, while summer climbers need sturdy boots and weather-appropriate clothing for rapid temperature changes.

The mountain's name derives from a nearby lake that freezes completely during winter months, creating a mirror-like surface that reflects the surrounding peaks.
