Carros de Foc North (10-12/10) travels through the Aran and Ribagorça areas of the Park, featuring great contrasts and surrounded by the highest mountains in the western Pyrenees. Stages without huge elevation gains but requiring walking for hours, culminating in a final day where we cross one of the key mountain passes of the Carros de Foc route.
