Vall del Madriu-Perafita-Claror
Madriu is a protected UNESCO World Heritage cultural landscape, rather than a third Andorran natural park. Stone paths, pastoral buildings and valleys preserve the visible relationship between people and mountains over centuries. Walking towards Ràmio or Fontverd introduces the lower valley, while journeys to the upper lakes require far more time and effort. Separate a cultural walk from a high-mountain traverse, and choose the appropriate approach and refuge before setting out.
