General Description

A la carretera de la Vall d'Incles passant el pont de la Baldosa, trobem un aparcament on deixar el nostre vehicle.
Comencem la nostra ruta per una pista forestal on tot just a 100 metres trobem una senyalització a la font del Travenc i Refugi i estanys de Juclar. Seguirem aquest camí, tot i que podem pujar per la pista, camí que agafarem de tornada.
Seguim l'itinerari, passant pel costat del riu del Siscaró, passant per uns petits ponts fets de fusta que ens facilita el camí i el fa encara més agradable. Arribem a una zona pícnic i la font del Travenc. Just a mà dreta el pont del Travenc, el creuem i anem a buscar la pista uns 200 mètres més a baix trobem les indicacions a les basses, refugi i estanys de Siscaró.
El sender puja lleugerament pel costat del riu, és estret i va guanyant desnivell fins que trobem la cascada del riu Siscaró. Continuem pujant, arribem a les basses del Siscaró, una esplanada preciosa, on també podem visitar la cabana de Siscaró i fer un petit descans i gaudir del paisatge.
Abandonem la cabana, vorejant les basses tornem a guanyar desnivell fins a arribar a les basses dels Basers i més endavant trobem l'estany de Baix. On podem quedar-nos aquí o bé si tenim més forces continuem fins a l'estany de les Canals Roges.
El retorn el farem pel mateix lloc, o bé seguirem el GPS on podem fer una petita variant un xic més tècnica i inclinat.

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
