At dawn and after having recharged our strength with a breakfast, it is then that we will head to Midi d´Ossau . We will go around it starting a route around it through the Souzon pass . As we move through the snow at our own pace, we can easily and without complex sections or ascents view different angles of the colossal Midi d'Ossau peak , which is characterized by its dark black tone, and its pyramidal shape that many times it prevents the accumulation of snow. After going around this beautiful summit, we will return at the end of the route crossing the Valle de la Neu .
