We start the route to Ordino, in front of the Comú building, and we will go to the Segudet road, until the asphalt leaves the dirt road, and shortly after we will find the signposting of GR, which always rises , will lead us to the Coll d'Ordino, already at 2000m high. Without stepping on the asphalt of the road, we will see the path on the left, well indicated and milled, first by forest, and then by path between alpine meadows, it will lead us to Casamanya S Peak, 2740m, crowned by a a great milestone that will be visible for a long time, and following the ridge, without technical or physical difficulty, we will reach the Pico de Casamanya N, the culminating point of the route, with 2756m.
