Andorra can boast of many facets, but if one stands out above the rest, it is the natural environment it offers. An aspect highly valued by travelers from all over the world who choose the small country of the Pyrenees to unwind with routes and trails that delight young and old.
In this aspect we want to focus in this article: the best routes to do with the family in Andorra. We want to highlight 5 visits that you can not miss if your stay in the Principality you do it with the company of the little ones at home.
Tibetan Bridge
Inaugurated this past spring, in the parish of Canillo, at an altitude of 1,875 m we find an impressive structure known as the Tibetan Bridge. It is a bridge 603 meters long, with a width of only one meter and located 158 meters above the ground that connects the slopes of two mountains and above the Deveses River. The sensations are incredible, and young and old enjoy a unique experience. You can get there by car and walk a little more than 400 m along a path. Beyond the sensations of vertigo and admiration, you will see wonderful landscapes in a beautiful environment.
Roc del Quer viewpoint
Another place to test your vertigo. One of those visits that you will remember and talk about. It is a 20-meter long walkway, of which 8 meters you will walk on consolidated ground and 12 meters you will walk on a ledge suspended in the air. This last part of the walkway will make you feel like you are floating above the Pyrenees. In addition, part of the section is made of glass, which allows you to have a view of what you have under your feet and amplifies the sensation caused by the altitude of the structure. If you are brave enough to walk to the end, you will be delighted with the incredible panoramic views of the Pyrenean mountains.
La Vall d’Incles
Located between Canillo and Soldeu el Tarter, we find one of the places that, for many, is one of the most beautiful places in Andorra. A really easy excursion suitable for children and adults. During the summer season, those responsible for the park provide a little train to travel a route that ends at the bottom of the valley, even so, it is an excursion that most of the route is flat. In addition, from this point we can access trails that lead to lakes and remote parts of the country that will make you enjoy the peace and tranquility you are looking for.
The forest of the Menairons
If what you are looking for is a magical world, you will find it at the Forest of the Menairons. The elves that lend a hand to the Tió when it comes to making Christmas presents, hide among the trees to generate surprise and illusion of the little ones. Following an easy route that starts very close to the resort of Pal Arinsal, you will find the little elves and their houses hidden throughout the route. In addition, the route has tracks and tests for children to enter a world of fantasy and have fun along the way with maximum excitement. About two hours will be enough to cover the 4 km of the circuit. An adventure full of fantastic and mythical beings of the Pyrenean mountains.
The iron route
One of the most emblematic routes of Andorra. A route that allows us to know an activity that, in the past, became a very important economic engine for the Andorran society. The Ferro Route which is located in the town of Llorts, in the parish of Ordino, explains how the old muleteers moved the iron from the mine of Llorts to the Rossell Forge to mold it according to the needs.
The route, also known as “El camí dels TraginersThe route, also known as “El camí dels Traginers”, offers us, in an easy and pleasant way, a series of sculptures that show the way of working this metal, with the shortcomings and solutions that were available at the time. The route is one way and storm and takes us from Llorts to the Cortinada. We are talking about a very pleasant walk of 7 km that you can do with your family in just over two and a half hours. From this proposal we can not miss the visit to Les Mines de Llorts and the church of Sant Martí de la Cortinada.
