In The Photos of the Readers of La Vanguardia we can see how there is still some snow on the top of Puigmal despite the drought, the high temperatures in Catalonia, although this last weekend of April it has rained and it is announced that the thermometers.

El Puigmal, in Alta Cerdanya, is the second highest mountain in the province of Girona, with 2,914 meters, and is located on the border between Spain and France.

In this case, the images were taken from the Munts sanctuary, in Lluçanès, more than 60 kilometers away. From this location there is a 360º view of Montseny, Collsacabra, the Eastern Pyrenees, the Pedraforca massif or Montserrat.

Located between the municipalities of Queralbs (Ripollès) and Err (Alta Cerdanya, Eastern Pyrenees), the Puigmal is the highest of the peaks that make up the so-called Gran Olla that surrounds the Vall de Núria.

It is a wide and rounded top. And its ascent is easy if the weather conditions are not very adverse. At its summit is a forged iron cross and a plaque with verses by Jacint Verdaguer.
