Shelter - Refugi Sant Jordi

Description

44 beds Paid 1565m

In 1951 the Catalan delegation of the then Spanish Federation of Mountaineering enabled the old Hostal del Font del Faig as a refuge, located in a strategic area at the foot of the Coll de Pendís. Time afterwards, the precarious state of the building caused the owners to transfer to the FEEC a neighboring plot to erect a new refuge. Thanks to the economic support of the Diputació de Barcelona, ​​an equipment was built which was opened in October 1961. Although the architectural structure of the building has remained - in fact it is the same as in the Estanys de la Pera and Serra de Ensija refuges - today Sant Jordi is a very cozy and comfortable refuge. The refuge is the crossroads of the Horses of the Wind, the Magic Mountains and the Good Men's Road. Also, access through the PR-C 125, a beautiful excursion that runs through the Empedrats, the old Camí de la Cerdanya, following the spectacular and embedded valley of the river Pendís, is a totally recommended experience. As for the ascents, the star of the area is the Peñas Altas del Moixeró (2,276m), the most charismatic summit of the Moixeró mountain range.
