Itinerary description
<<< English follows >>> El Orhi es un pico muy conocido por ser el primero de más de 2000 metros de los Pirineos empezando por el Oeste. En concreto, 2014 metros. El día de la ascensión no era muy frío y tampoco era soleado: un día perfecto. Mucha nieve y, en ocasiones, profunda. Algunas personas subían con crampones pero nosotros no los usamos. El ascenso es continuo pero no es fatigoso si vas a un ritmo tranquilo. Hay un paso complicado pero se consigue hacer con cuidado. La cima está entre España y Francia y las vistas merecen la pena el esfuerzo. Tuvimos que dejar el coche en la estación de esquí de Abodi porque la carretera estaba cortada. En verano se puede subir con el coche hasta el túnel y ahorras tiempo. Ruta realizada con Itxaro y Eduardo. <<< English >>> The peak Orhi is very well known as the first of more than 2000 meters in the Pyrenees starting from the West. Specifically, 2014 meters. The day of the climb was not very cold and it was not sunny: a perfect day. Lots of snow and sometimes profound. Some people climbed with crampons but we did not use them. The ascent is continuous but is not tiring if you're going at a quiet pace. There is a complicated point but it can be done with a bit of care. The summit is between Spain and France and the views were worth the effort. We had to leave the car at the Abodi ski resort because the road was closed. In summer you can come up with the car to the tunnel and save time. This route was done with Itxaro and Eduardo.
