Itinerary description

Hike date: 22/06/2016

A short hike through this lovely park, passing:

- Estany de Sant Maurici
- Estany de Ratera
- Refugi amitges

It wasn't particularly difficult for four 30 year olds with a small amount of hiking experience. Good quality paths (except where it was covered in snow) helped, as did a broadly gentle incline.
