  1. 5.0 Via Ferrata Roc del Quer (48 reviews)
    - What a view!
    Hiking Trails
    Via Ferrata Roc del Quer image
    Staying in Canillo (Andorra) one cannot ignore that little "bridge", hung above in the air - see picture. Well, it's easy to access, we drove up the mountain and arrived to the parking lot (a few spaces next to the entrance, much bigger plot is 170 meter down the road). The walk is not that hard, though it's downhill to reach the view point (and of course uphill back to the car). I saw young and old people doing it. The view of the valley, with Canillo just underneath, and then the opposing mountains, is impressive and almost artistic. One thing to add - please continue driving the road to Ordino - it's beautiful! See more..
  2. 5.0 Cabana Sorda Lake Trail (18 reviews)
    - Scenic walk in the Ingles Valley
    Hiking Trails
    Cabana Sorda Lake Trail image
    We obtained the trail guide brochure from the tourist information office and decided to go on to this trail, which is rated as 'moderate' difficulty level. It took me who is not physically fit more than 2.5 hours for a 4.5km journey to reach to the lake (expect some quite steep slopes along the way). The view along the trail is very scenic where one would pass a forest area known as La Pinosa before reaching to the mountain top which is entirely a beautiful grassland area! Worth to spend at least half day up there for a lake side picnic! The view from the forest land to the valley and to Soldeu is breathtaking! See more..

    Coma de Ransol image
    I took the long walk in Ransol to the Pic del Serrera. For a hiking novice it was a challenge, but I made it to the top. Very beautiful area. It's possible to continue the hike through Sorteny, but unfortunately I had to go back to my car. See more..
  5. 5.0 El Siscaro - Biax Lake Trail (9 reviews)
    - Siscaro lake, very pretty.
    Hiking Trails
    El Siscaro - Biax Lake Trail image
    Siscaro is a lovely walk, you are mostly in the tree line so it is quite relaxing and cool even in summer, I have done this walk three times now and always enjoy it. It is an easy return trail if you don't have a lot of time, I take visiting friends there because the walk is so pleasant. The lake itself is gorgeous, like all the lakes in Andorra, it is pristine and fishermen seem to do ok in it. There is a refuge down in the valley, perhaps a ten minute walk downhill from the lake, it is handy incase of summer storms etc. I would recommend this walk for kids, there is a lot to look at along the way and it is easy to keep them amused. Watch out for the red and white toadstools, there are quite a few of these along the trail and although they are very pretty to look at, they are incredibly toxic, even to the touch, young children need to be watched because they seem to be attracted to these. On all other points though, it is a lovely walk. See more..

    Port d'Incles image
    Fui a la Vall d'Incles por recomendación de una amiga andorrana, quería algo cerca de Barcelona, para poder ir el fin de semana, para poder desconectar de todo un poco, ya que agosto trabajando es duro de llevar. La verdad, que me pareció un sitio con encanto especial, las casas de piedra, el valle verde, el rio y la excursiones. Desconecte y me sirvió para afrontar otra semana más de trabajo. See more..

    Cruz de Carlemany situada en la parte posterior del Santuari de Meritxell. És un camino muy fácil y agradable que puede conectar con muchas poblaciones de la parroquia de Canillo (Meritxell, Prats, L’Aldosa, Ransol, Soldeu). La cruz es preciosa y es como un cruceiro. See more..

    This quaint valley is literally a winter wonderland with lovely trails and a small creek running along it.

Highly recommended! See more..

    Hiking Trails
    Cami de les Basses de les Salamandres image
    It's a nice route for half an ancient mountain passes orreos cattle and beautiful scenery. The itinerary begins at the end of the road Ransol (past the town that bears the same name) next to the Borda Marticella, where we leave the car. The road is marked with (community run) three yellow dots. It has a medium difficulty and takes place in about 4 hours. During the walk we pass the lake Querol and, depending on the season, find blue irises or daffodils, the typical flower of our country. See more..

    Church of Sant Joan de Caselles image
    The building dates from the 11th-12th century and follows the architectural style of other Andorran Romanesque churches: it has a rectangular single nave with wooden ceiling, a semi-circular apse andLombard-style belfry. It conserves two archways probably built in the16th and 17th centuries.The interior has remains of a 12th century Romanesque stucco crucifix surrounded by a mural showing the crucifixion with Longinus andStephanon accompanied by the Sun and Moon. Behind the altar grillis a highly artistic 16th century altarpiece showing Italian and German Renaissance influence with scenes from the life and martyrdomof Saint John, author of the book of Revelations and patron saint ofthe church.

    Soldeu Ski School image
    Fantastic week of lessons with Bruce R. Great balance of instruction and skiing. Cannot recommend the group lessons enough. We did 3 hours 10-1 m-f. We improved in technique and confidence more than we could have ever expected in 5 days. Bruce took us on a huge variety of runs we'd not have known about so acted as a mountain guide as well as instructor. We'll be booking again for next year. Thank you so much Bruce for adding to our amazing holiday in Soldeu. See more..
  17. 4.5 Valle de Incles (147 reviews)
    - Recommend it
    Nature & Wildlife Areas
    Valle de Incles image
    We only did the walk from the parking space to the end of the road. It's a very beautiful walk as it follows the right side of the river. I highly recommend it, if you don't have much time or if you are not in a good condition. It's just a few steep parts, but no climbing. This hike is really easy. You are rewarded with a beautiful scenery. If you are lazy, you can take the little train back to the start for 3 bugs ;) See more..
  18. 4.5 Museo de la Moto (86 reviews)
    - A must-visit museum
    Saturday: 3:00 PM - 7:00 PM Spent < 1 hour Speciality Museums
    Museo de la Moto image
    Tucked away under-ground, next to the Church on the hill just on the Northern edge of Canillo, is this fascinating motorcycle museum. It is only 5 Euros so get in (parking free in the adjacent car park) and well worth it to see the amazing display of motorbikes through the ages. The lady who greeted us at the door left us to our own devices to have a look round, but was always on hand to answer any questions, have a chat (she spoke English brilliantly), and generally enthuse about the wonderful bikes here. She told us that all the bikes are on loan from local people, and if you take the time to visit here you'll be impressed at the quantity and quality on show and you don't have to be a petrol-head or a motorcycle enthusiast to appreciate this. Pop in and see for yourself, you won't be disappointed. See more..

    The Harp image
    A great and fun Apres Ski Bar. Live music and a great atmosphere. Mary and her team are very welcoming and nothing is too much trouble to keep her customers happy. They even found a way for my friends and I to watch the Grimsby vs Southampton Qtr final when all the other bars in town were showing Manchester United. Thank you so much. We will be back. See more..
  21. 4.5 Ski Canaro - pistas para debutantes (38 reviews)
    - Great place to learn...
    Saturday: 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM Spent 2-3 hours Ski & Snowboard Areas
    Ski Canaro - pistas para debutantes image
    With assured snow, on-site rental and great instructors this is a brilliant place to experience your ‘first snow’. Private lessons available for ski and board and prices marginally better than those offered at the main Grandvalira resort. It’s a well groomed slope that’s very quiet and aimed at the absolute beginner. An excellent place to practice newly learned skills. The hotel also offers a good menu (from midday to seven) and drinks to ensure you are fuelled for your experience. For the younger visitor separate areas for sledging and playing are also available. Recommend for novices and families with young children wanting a safe environment. See more..
  22. 4.5 Barcode (24 reviews)
    - Great for apres ski
    Bars & Clubs

  23. 4.5 Grandvalira Golf Soldeu (17 reviews)
    - Golfing in 2.250 meters great
    Spent More than 3 hours Golf Courses
    Grandvalira Golf Soldeu image
    Soldeu in summer becomes the cradle of golf thanks to its course, located at 2,250 m altitude. The British architect Jeremy Pern, selected among the best in the world by the Peugeot Golf Guide, has been the author of this unique project offered by Grandvalira. Golf Soldeu, located in an incomparable environment at 2,250 m, is the highest golf course in Europe and has been designed with perfect technical characteristics for all levels. With 9 holes and a par 33, the course has been integrated harmoniously with its natural environment, taking advantage of the topography and natural elements. It is the most "green" space of the domain. See more..

  26. 4.5 Pic de Casamanya (9 reviews)
    - Fabulous views of the whole of Andorra
    Hiking Trails
    Pic de Casamanya image
    We walked up from the carpark at the top of the Ordino pass. From here the route starts through forest before coming out onto the mountain itself. The path was not too difficult although poles are useful for nearer the top where the slopes are steeper and more scree like. We saw several vultures above us and one below us at one point. A recommended peak as not too difficult but fabulous views. There is a book in a ammo box at the summit in the cairn wall to sign! See more..
  27. 4.5 Iglesia de la Santa Creu de Canillo (9 reviews)

    Iglesia de la Santa Creu de Canillo image
    Si uno tiene la enorme suerte de encontrar al señor que la cuida, o mucho más raro, encontrar que está abierta la pequeña iglesia, se encontrará con una verdadera maravilla, hermosamente decorada con la sobriedad del siglo XII y tallas, pinturas de enorme valor histórico.
    Sinceramente, muy hermosa.
