From Figueres to France. Landscapes Of Eastern Catalonia

After leaving Figueres, we drive towards the French border.

The slopes of the low mountains along the road are covered with charred tree trunks.

In 2010, there were severe wildfires here.

And you can only be surprised when you meet houses untouched by fire among the burnt vegetation.

La Jonquera, the last Spanish city.

Closer to the border, traces of fires are no longer visible.

Near the border, an abandoned house is visible on a mountain slope. There are no fields in sight, so it is unlikely that farmers lived here. Perhaps this is a former border post.

Pyramid of Perthus (la pyramid du Perthus). This is already France.

Then we go through the province of Landedoc-Roussillon.
