Taga (Circulate)

To the coll of Jou accesses from Ribas of Freser i afterwards by the local road GIV5263 until The village of LLagonas where will take a track asphalted until the Coll of Jou, track to expand and pronounced curves that goes elevating until achieving the 1637m. Of altitude.

In the coll of Jou park the cars without problems, near of a poster indicativo that marks us the way to be followed to go up to the Taga, without too much complication, since the mountain have it in front of us  from where even divisa the peak.

We initiate the way simultaneously to a "tanca" of animals, and go it following, taking quite a lot of height already from the start of the ascensión. In a moment we find a footpath rightwards that it carried us to the carena of the mountain, but like our aim was to go down by the carena until Sant Marti d'Ogasa, decide to rise all derechito until the peak of Taga, 2038m. Of altitude.

The vertical of the mountain, increasingly imponente, heaves on our heads and assaults us the question will be able to go up is slope so vertical, but if, if, the peak was in our hands.

In 1 hour and 20 minutes plant us in the peak and find us with a giant cross, white, imponente, and perfect. There the photo of rigour, all together, hit to the cross, with the flag Estelada of the Independence of Catalonia and the flag of the Barça. If gentleman.

Afterwards we follow the carena until arriving to the Portela of Ogasa to 1792m. Of altitude. The carena is perfect, of descent, easy, green meadow and with spectacular sights. When we arrive to the portela imposes the descent in zig-saga because the pendencie is very pronounced, more than the rise to the Taga. We go going down by the way, that to measure that descends does but boscosa, go leaving the high mountain. The way is rocky and it is necessary to walk with care not to slip with the priedras of the way, that conform in shape of tartera pequeñita.

Finally  we finish this way and arrive to the romance Church of Sant Marti of Ogasa, where eat, rest and in less than 30 minutes reiniciamos again the way.

Our intention was to look for a way of turn by the mountain until the coll of Jou, but between the threatening rain, and the little clear-cut way, opt for following the track assaulted, of some 5 Km. Until the Coll of Jou, where finalise this fantastic, reconfortante and beautiful trek by the mountain of the Taga.
