La Porta del Cel Trek is a beautiful mountain trip that connects several refuges in the Parc Natural de l’Alt Pirineu in Catalonia and the Parc Naturel Régional Pyrénées Ariégeoises in France. In addition, La Porta del Cel Trek owes its name to the fact that the route passes through the highest peak in Catalonia, La Pica d´Estats at 3,143 meters.
