Camí de Percanela les Fonts Bordes dels Prats Nous Camí de Percanela Bordes Prats Nous Refugi de les Fonts, Es va inaugurar el 1981, té 6 places de capacitat i està construït en pedra, està a 2.195 metres d’altitud, s’hi pot anar amb cotxe fins al poble d’Arinsal i aleshores s’ha de continuar a peu pel camí de Percanela-Bordes de Torner-Prat Nou fins al refugi. Es tracta d’un refugi no guardat, que està obert tot l'any, tot i que el manteniment s'acostuma a fer durant els mesos d’estiu (neteja, llenya, farmaciola...). Disposa de lliteres, llar de foc i aigua al costat del refugi.

General Description

Recorregut: Ruta lineal que transita per camins comunals marcats amb punt groc, per camins GR i GRP.
Els camins estan ben marcats i no presenten cap dificultat.

Observacions: Ruta on gairebé anirem tota l'estona per dins el bosc, en arribar al Refugi de les Fonts i trobarem una font d'Aigua ben fresca.

Ascens: Sortirem del centre del poble d'Arinsal, pujarem pel carrer la Grella que ens durà fins a l'inici del camí de Percanela, marcat amb punts grocs.
Anirem pujant fins a trobar les bordes de Percanela i una mica més endavant les de Prats Nous, continuem avançant pel camí de les Fonts fins a arribar a l'encreuament que indica de girar a la dreta per pujar fins al Refugi de les Fonts.

Descens: Seguirem el mateix camí que hem fet de pujada que ens durà fins on hem començat la ruta al centre del poble, un cop arribats podem prendre algun refresc o fer un bon àpat als restaurants del poble.

Safety tips

Enjoy the mountain safely

Mountain tours can be dangerous, which is why it is your responsibility to take all the necessary measures to safeguard your safety and integrity.

1. Preparation of the itinerary

Check the weather forecast before your departure

Take into account your physical condition and your experience in the environment

Consult the avalanche danger bulletin in winter times

Plan a suitable route knowing shelter points

2. Essential material

Bring the appropriate material for the activity and weather conditions

The rucksack cannot lack drink and food adapted to the departure

Don't forget to check beforehand that the DVA, Shovel and Probe are working

3. Mountain rescue

In the event of an accident or rescue in the mountains, call the emergency number.

What is ATES mapping?

The Avalanche Terrain Exposure Scale (ATES by its acronym in English) is a tool that allows you to evaluate, describe and communicate how prone the terrain is to being affected by avalanches, without taking into account variable snow-meteorological factors.

The ATES classification was developed in 2004 by Parks Canada following an accident in which seven teenagers died, probably due to a bad choice of route. Since then, this scale has been applied to several mountain ranges in Canada and New Zealand.

In the Pyrenees, this project has been developed in the Lauegi Center of Aran, in Tavascan, in some sectors of the Aragonese Pyrenees and in Andorra.

To carry out this classification, the technicians take into account different variables such as the slope, the density of the vegetation, the traps in the terrain or the frequency and size of expected avalanches, among others.

The final product is an invariant map in which the alluvial terrain is divided into three classes.

What are the types of terrain?
Simple

Exposure to steep slopes and forest terrain. Some forest clearings may involve areas of infrequent avalanche arrivals. Many options to reduce or eliminate exposure

demanding

Exposure to well-defined avalanche path zones, exit zones or traps. There are options to reduce or eliminate exposure by careful route finding

Complex

Exposure to multiple and overlapping avalanche path zones or to large areas of open and sloping terrain. Multiple avalanche start zones with traps below. Minimal options to reduce exposure
