From the parking lot of Sorteny we will enter the forest of the Rialb valley and follow the river along its right bank. The terrain is easy, but sometimes the lack of snow inside the wooded part can make it difficult to progress. Once we leave the forest, in the plateau of Rabassa, we will find on the right a more deforested area, it is the Font Freda valley that can fall naturally in conditions of great instability. From this point until we reach the Rialb refuge, we'll be exposed to falling natural avalanches to the right and left.. In addition, the terrain configuration in this sector is unfavorable (trap terrain), since a small purge could bury us completely, so it is advisable to separate the group well. Once we get to the Rialb refuge we have two options: we can continue down the valley about 300 meters and turn right until we find a tube, or we can continue to the right of the refuge to the same tube. Once we pass this tube, the ground opens up and smooths and we progress to a very smooth slope that is left to the right of the stream. As we progress we will discover the port of Banyell, where we will arrive on smooth terrain.. At the port of Banyell, you have to take off your skis and climb first to the peak of Solanet and then to the peak of Port de Siguer. In this section, you need the clamp and the chicken.. The descent is the same way
