Itinerary description

Iconic ski peak in Andorra. This follows the most popular line, up the Riu del Comis Vell valley towards Portella de Riabl, turning left just past the Coma de Varilles, up on the shoulder of Font Blanca and then climbing the side of the south ridge to the summit. Amazing views! And then the beautiful descent down the SW face - beware the rock band near the bottom, you need to ski through in the right place. Not advisable to ski if snow is unstable or very icy. Skiing back down the ascent line is also a great way down.
