Peyreguils Peak and Solar Tristaina Viewpoint

Peyreguils Peak is located in the area of Creussans inside the Arcalís Ski Resort and there are two ways of accessing it: you can take the trail that leaves from the bar-restaurant La Coma d'Arcalís or you can go up with the chairlift, if open (late June to mid-September, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.).

If we take the trail, we will pass along the shore of Lake Creussans. However, if we opt for the chairlift, we will fly over it. Once in Creussans Pass, we follow the ridge without much difficulty to Peyreguils Peak, where starting in the summer of 2021 you can enjoy spectacular views from the new Solar de Tristaina Viewpoint, located at 2,701 metres above sea level.

The viewpoint is made of annealed steel where visitors can stand. It also acts as a sundial with a central gnomon 27 metres long and tilted at 42.55°. The ring has a 25-metre diameter and the entire structure weighs 32 tons, anchored to the ground at only four points.
