Overview

Montcorbison is a mountain situated in Val d`Aran area, dominates over Veilla (Vielha). It is not important Pirenean summit, but offers wide views - to highest part of these range - Pico dĄneto, Maladeta and gropu Aigues Tortes. On the summit is some little wooden building - I think - something about meteo?

Route

No marked routes leading to summit, you can use forest or shepherd's paths, over tree line, grass is slippery and sliding on the field stone.
Most convenient way to summit (but longer) leading by land-road, towards mountain pastures - and from here - right to grassy ridge to summit.
Attention - on summer- by the way grow wild strawberries - it is hard, to pass it ;)
