Parc Natural de l’Alt Pirineu

Catalunya · Pallars Sobirà y Alt UrgellPyrenees

Catalonia’s high mountains meet forests, pasture and inhabited villages here. Explore one valley at a time, choosing between lakes, cultural walks and wildlife observation. For a quieter family day, consider the adapted section at Mollera d’Escalarre; journeys towards Pica d’Estats require a substantially more demanding mountain plan.
