Sacred Mountain in the Pyrénées-Orientales, not so long ago thought by many to be the "highest mountain in the World", this really is a special place.
It's snow capped top rises above all its surroundings, and there are many remains of ancient civilisation to be found on its flanks and lower slopes.
