This route is performed at the last fiscal valley of the Garonne, before the river pass the frontier.
Once at the twentieth century there was a mining operation in the Lakes Liat, where there is still part of the instalations of a long ski lift.
We may also enjoy with the magnificent
fir forests of beech of the Sierra de Bedrera where the road runs.
In front we can see the Peak l'Horadic of 2118m, Cap dera Maleda 2104m and Cap dera Comassa 2191m.
We will leave the car next to the Forest Refuge dera Honeria we are approximately at 1015m of altitude. If we want we can take a look to the map that there is at wall, out of the refuge to see the the path that we will follow, and obtain information from other routes that start from here.

The route starts picking the road behind the refuge, there we can see an indicator post.
we will begin the journey with a gentle slope, on the right side we will have the
river Toran.
After about 5 minutes walk, we will see at our left a wide valley and that our track joins to a a wider trail.
We will continue on this track, on the way CR-211 following the direction to Mine of Liat, as another indicator post that we find on our left will show us.
After 15 minutes walking, the path is divided into two, we will take the left path, which goes near the river, heading to Barratge d'Arbaets dera Liat.
The road is softer than the beginning one

You can look at the forest firs, birch and

beech as well as small streams and cascades down the mountain.
Although we do this track in the spring, we can find snow on the road, and the moss and lichen on the rocks and trees.
We must be careful, because if we are in the era of thaw, we can see small snow avalanches.
After walking for about 30 minutes we will find ourselves in a small flat where the road is divided in two again, we also pick the path on the left, which leads to a small bridge, the Bridge Barrier to 1235m, about 2km from the initiation of the route, the other path that we leave behind takes to the other side of a dam.
From this bridge we can see at our right the Barratge d'Arbaets of Liat a small dam, where it is interesting to see the small
