Directory coverage

This directory brings together Pyrenean national, natural and regional nature parks, identified foothill areas and Montserrat. Other protection categories are labelled separately: this is not a register of every reserve or Natura 2000 site. A park’s administrative territory may differ from its strictly protected core; each rule applies to the zone identified in the entry.

Parc natural de la vall de Sorteny

Sorteny rewards a close look at mountain nature: its botanical garden and meadows reveal details easily missed on a summit-focused day. From the lower valley, choose a walk to the refuge or a more demanding outing towards Estanyó lake and the high ridges. The valley contains reserve zones and wetlands with their own access conditions. For a relaxed introduction, start with the visitor information service and choose a route suited to the season.

Parc Natural Comunal de les Valls del Comapedrosa

Above Arinsal, the developed valley soon gives way to woods, waterfalls, rocky lake basins and ridges around Andorra’s highest point. Comapedrosa suits a visit with days of different intensity: explore lower paths separately from a demanding summit ascent. You do not need to reach the highest summit for a rewarding park day. Match your objective to weather and experience, and contact the refuge before an overnight trip: snow and avalanche conditions can transform these routes.
