Refugi de Cuberes

Refugi de Cuberes, also known as Casa Miró, is a mountain refuge and restaurant located at an altitude of about 1,480 metres in the Boumort Reserve, within the municipality of Baix Pallars in the Pallars Sobirà comarca of Catalonia, Spain. It sits near the abandoned village of Cuberes, on the north-eastern foothills of the Serra de Cuberes, surrounded by forest. According to its official website, it is the only house inside the Boumort Reserve where visitors can eat and spend the night. The refuge began as an old forest house (casa forestal) that was gradually repaired and converted into a mountain refuge. A later renovation focused on improving energy efficiency while giving the building a refreshed character. The refuge provides accommodation and meals, and it promotes outdoor activities such as mountain biking, hiking, deer rutting observation, mushroom gathering, photography and astronomy. It is reached by forest tracks from the Alt Urgell side (about 11 km from near Taús, roughly 40 minutes by car) or from the Pallars Sobirà side (about 18 km of forest track from between La Pobla de Segur and Gerri de la Sal, roughly one hour by car, suitable for 4x4 or high-clearance vehicles). Reservations are required in advance. The refuge is a small, privately operated hospitality business rather than a large chain. Its appeal lies in its remote setting, silence, wildlife (notably deer and vultures) and dark skies. It is listed on Wikidata and has a short article on the Catalan Wikipedia.

The building that now houses Refugi de Cuberes was originally an old forest house (casa forestal) in the Boumort area. Over time it was repaired and converted into a mountain refuge, becoming known as Refugi de Cuberes or Casa Miró. It is located at about 1,478–1,480 metres above sea level near the abandoned village of Cuberes, on the north-eastern foothills of the Serra de Cuberes, within the municipality of Baix Pallars (Pallars Sobirà), in the former municipal area of Baén. The refuge lies inside the Boumort Reserve. According to its official website, it is the only house inside the reserve where visitors can eat and spend the night. A renovation was carried out to improve energy efficiency and update the building's appearance. The refuge operates as a small hospitality business offering accommodation, meals and nature activities, with access via forest tracks from the Alt Urgell and Pallars Sobirà sides. Reservations are required in advance.
