The GR-11 is a way of great route that takes charge to present to us the Pyrenees, without raising their tops although approaching many of them, starting in Cabo de Higuer (the Atlantic Ocean) until arriving after Creus Cape (Mediterranean Sea). With this form you cross the part of the Pyrenees that reason, within Spanish territory, by Navarre, Basque Country, Aragon, Andorra and Catalonia.
Instrument that in our case was very useful and fundamental to us, is the GR-11 guide of PRAMES publishing house, that contains maps on scale 1:40.000 of all the 47 stages in which the route is divided, and includes a book in which it details the considered time of duration of each of them and commentaries that can be of major or smaller interest for the traveller.
As it has already been mentioned, this one is not a way that takes until the highest tops of the Pyrenean one, but is thought for give you to know and to walk by footpaths that sometimes enter in forests and unimaginable and unforgettable forests to you. To decide to raise beyond where it takes the route to you, is personal initiative. Also it approaches to you great amount of recondite towns of the Pyrenean one in which you can enjoy the best bread and inlay, or allows you to sleep in quiet and starred valleys doing bivouac in which the unique thing that is listened to is to flow of the water more or less near you. Also it is necessary to mention the joy that supposes not to have to mount the store when you find to good hour a equipped free refuge, or a mountain camping where to be able to rest.
