Sur les pentes du Canigou

A hike that starts at the foot of the Canigou, in the pasturelands. The bolts of lightning pierce the sky. The film images are focused on nature, so we cross many rivers, and then the forest of Llech. The landscape is covered with snow. The hikers stop at the winter shelter of the CAF ("French Alpine Club") in Cortalets. The ascent ends with a magnificent view of the plain and the last shot is a colour sight of the Canigou covered with snow.
