Run to the eclipse.
We're heading from Ordino Arcalís toward Peyreguils and the Tristaina Solar Viewpoint for a very different Run the Pyrenees evening.
We'll run / hike together, reach the viewpoint before the main phase of the eclipse and experience it from high in the Pyrenees.
This is about the mountains, the community and sharing a rare evening together. It is not a race — we move together, regroup on the climb and make sure everyone reaches the viewpoint safely.
