Notes

Please be aware that the section of the GR 107 between Bellver de Cerdanya and Prullans runs along the shoulder of the N-260 road for approximately 400 metres and crosses it twice. This is a busy road, so extreme caution is required.

If you prefer to avoid this section, there is an alternative route between Bellver and Prullans, approximately 6 km long and taking around 2 hours. You can find the track for this route here, prepared by our guide from Penyes Altes. This alternative adds approximately 2 km and 150 metres of elevation gain to the stage.

The proposed end of the stage is in Viliella, at the accommodation Molí del Salt, where you have the possibility of ordering dinner and breakfast.
