Observations

By means of vehicle transport, this third stage can be shortened, for example, saving the 4.5 km (1 h 14 min) of paved road between Bagà and the Gréixer path, or the 2.16 km (31 min) between Sant Serni de Coborriu and Bellver de Cerdanya.

The GR 107, the GR 150 and the GR 4.2 pass through Bagà. You must be careful and follow the instructions.

At the Pendis pass, the GR 107 crosses with the GR 150-1, which follows the ridge.
