»Puig« means peak, pizzo, piz, so horn, »mal« means bad. But it can't be that bad for the highest summit of the Spanish province of Gerona, or for the second highest summit of the French Pyrénées Catalanes. Neither for the winter sports enthusiasts who can ski up to the summit La Tossa (2662 m) on the French side, nor for the pilgrims starting from the Spanish pilgrimage site Núria. What are the masts for some are the summit markers for others: alongside the survey bolt and the traditional Catalan flag, the Puigmal d’Err is also adorned with various crosses and plaques. A note on the view: under the best conditions, it extends to the Aneto, 3404 m, the highest peak of the entire Pyrenees.
From the Les Planes car park of the Err-Puigmal station on the D 89, which is closed to traffic, further up the valley to the first bend, 2077 m. Continue straight on a path along a stream almost to its source (Font de la Ribera d’Err, approx. 2380 m). The well-recognizable trail steeply ascends left of it into a saddle, approx. 2640 m. Up the west ridge to Petit Puigmal de Sègre, 2810 m. Along a path on the ridge, bypassing a rise on the right, into a saddle, approx. 2760 m, and further along the French-Spanish border to the Puigmal d’Err, 2910 m. Return via the Petit Puigmal de Sègre as on the way there to Les Planes at the Err-Puigmal station.
