Carlit 50 Lakes Trek

From one lake to the next one through
the highest peaks of Eastern Pyrenees

We organize the Trekking for you. You just enjoy hiking.

The four unavoidable checkpoints of “Carlit 50 Lakes” are: Les Bouillouses (south-east), Camporells (north-east), En Beys (north) and Besines (west).
The trek is in operation during the summer season, between June and October, although the exact dates are flexible, depending on the presence of snow in the mountains and the calendar of the lodgings.
At the starting stage a “Welcome Pack” will be delivered to each hiker. Please bring a paper copy of the confirmed reservation, to display it upon your arrival at every lodging.
The whole trek is marked on the spot. The explanations of every stage provide accurate detail of the mark colour(s), which are not always the same.
The trek can also be extended to 7 days, discovering further trails of the massif. We can also offer alternative proposals, if you need to reduce it to two or three days. Ask for them!

The trek is usually started at Les Bouillouses, which is the easiest place to arrive, but if you prefer starting somewhere else, just ask us and we’ll organise it.
The touring direction (clockwise – counter clockwise) is not pre-determined.
It is compulsory to be insured. If this is not the case, we can provide an insurance for the days of the journey.
The road to Les Bouillouses is closed in summertime, but showing your Carlit 50 Lakes booking document, you will be allowed to enter by car and reach the first lodging
There are no inhabited locations in the whole tour where food can be bought. We, therefore, recommend ordering the picnics along with the reservation.
Should you want a mountain guide, ask for it, and we will provide it.

After the route (or before it), you can also stay at Matamala (Pla del Capcir), pastoral village from the middle ages at the feet of the mountains, where you can enjoy many holiday discounts delivered with the welcome pack.
In the reservations template you can select these lodging by clicking on “Add more nights”.
If you are interested in going deeper into the discovery of Capcir and Cerdanya, north-Catalan shires around Carlit, we can organize some additional holidays in the location mentioned above, or in any other of the interesting and attractive places of the area. Just ask for it!
In the following pictures you can get the flavour of the best locations in the region, which well deserve the extension of the stay to recover after the strenuous “Carlit 50 Lakes”.
