Petit Peric

To arrive to the starting point, will take like reference the location of Puigcerdà, where will take the road transfronteriza that carries to the Guingueta of Goes out and from here will go on down the N-116 direction Perpiñán, until arriving, just before going in in Mont-Lluís, to a roundabout (in his centre there is a monument of considerable dimensions), where owe to take the deviation that carries to Matamala and Formigueres (D-118), location this last to which have to direct us, and where just to his entrance and manually left goes out a road that will carry us to the station of ski.

Once we arrive to the station of ski, have two possibilities. In summer, can save a first desnivel with the telesilla, therefore estacionaremos the vehicle in the zone that there is in front of the installations, whereas out of season, and whenever the snow allow it to us, will follow with the vehicle by an in good condition track, that initiates in the explanada that serves of parking, to the right and above the buildings, and that has to carry us to the upper station of the remontador, crossing the different tracks of ski, until arriving to a point where the step remains fenced in.

In this point a label indicates us the routes of the zone. Obviously, there is a third possibility, that is to access to this point from the own station of ski, following a footpath that goes by inside the forest with yellow marks of painting until the Lakes of Camporrelles, saving some 350 metres of desnivel.

A time in the upper station of the telesilla, to 2.090 metres of altitude, will see that there is a caseta wooden, that serves for the control of access and will see that the track follows mountain up. Simultaneously, between the black pines, to his right, find a senda bounded with yellow marks. This footpath will carry us until the lacustrine zone of Camporrelles.

We will cross the track and will go on down a marked way that by inside the forest goes winning height to the Saw of Mauri. To the right we will see a caseta-shelter at the side of the same remontador, that can serve of shelter in case of need. This costly stretch finishes in a very wide plane herboso, where again reencontramos the track that incorporates by the right. We will see that there are several options, but will head to a hump with a milestone of stone that there is in the centre of the carena, that is the beak of the Saw of Mauri, to 2.428 metres of altitude. From this point, already have a good panoramic: To the right we see the Pic of the Muntanyeta and to the left the Baga of the Lladura, the Saw of the Alarbs and Puig of the Palm that the crown, but the sight that more stands out is precisely the silhouette of the two Perics, with the Carlit and the crest that continues until the Pic of Mortiers to the right and, underneath, the lacustrine zone of the Lakes of Camporrells. This aerial situation allows us do us an exact idea of the rise to the beak.

We will go down of the hill by the track or following the evident trace of the footpath, until arriving to a plane herboso in front of the Lake of in Mig, on which reflects the silhouette of the Petit Peric.

We follow it traces it of the Tour of the Capcir, marked with yellow and red painting, that will follow a stretch to our right (oriented to northwest) until arriving under the lake to 2.255 metres. We will happen the river that joins the lakes by a wooden bridge and will go in in a zone boscosa of black pine, that will leave us to the feet of a torrent that goes down between the stones, point where initiates the strong rise to the Petit Peric. Waters up, will arrive to a small plane to the feet of the tartera, near of the height 2.400, where will begin the strong ascensión that has to carry us to the summit of the Petit Peric.

Once saved this rocky stretch, the way softens and of form flatter arrive to the summit of the Petit Peric, to 2.690 metres of altitude with a very wide vision on the lake of the Bulloses, the Carlit and the Tossal Colomer, the mountains of Núria, the Cadí and the mountain ranges of the Cerdanya and Andorra, as well as, in a northerly direction, Puig of the Portella Big and the Pic of Mortiers.

Now we will go down in direction to the collado that separates the two Perics, by a very marked footpath until arriving to the height 2.608 mts., where the terrain goes back rocky and does lacking to go jumping to look for the most comfortable road. From this point will look for the best way of descent.

Once in the base have to abandon the way to direct us again to the Shelter of Camporrelles. This stretch can be a bit complicated  place that loses the way and the marks but our reference will be always the Petit Peric which have to leave to our left and go volteándolo entirely until finding the footpath of the Tour of the Capcir, in the stretch between the Balmeta and Camporrells, with red and yellow marks.

After happening the river by a wooden bridge find us again in the shelter of Camporrells. From here, reencontraremos the track that has to carry us to our point of start.
