Loop of the Perics (Eastern-Pyrenees, Ariege)

The Pérics massif is a majestic mountain range straddling the Pyrénées-Orientales and Ariège departments, in the heart of the Catalan Pyrenees and the Donezan region. The landscape is characterized by sharp, granite relief, sculpted by glaciers, giving rise to numerous high-altitude lakes with crystal-clear waters. The history of the massif is one of intense pastoral life, marked by transhumance, which forged a unique Pyrenean culture. The flora is typical of high mountains, dominated by mountain pine forests that cover the slopes, giving way to alpine meadows. The fauna is emblematic of the Pyrenees, including the Pyrenean chamois, the marmot, and various birds of prey that soar above the rocky cirques, making the Pérics massif a prime destination for hiking.
