At a glance

This plan covers 14 days, the same length as the example trip on the Andorra price page. It suits one traveller or a couple who like walking, small villages and slow mornings. The pace is easy to moderate. Most days pair one walk or sight with free time.

  • Base 1 (Days 1 to 5): Andorra la Vella or Escaldes-Engordany, for buses and food.
  • Base 2 (Days 6 to 10): Ordino or La Massana, for quiet valleys and trails.
  • Base 3 (Days 11 to 13): Canillo or Encamp, for the east of the country.
  • Before you go: check MFA's travel advice on the price page for entry rules and current notices.

Andorra has no airport. You fly from Changi to a nearby city such as Barcelona or Toulouse. Then you continue by road. Travel times vary, so check before you book.

Day 1: Arrive in Andorra la Vella

  • Morning: Land in Barcelona or Toulouse and take a coach or road transfer into Andorra.
  • Afternoon: Check in and walk the main streets slowly to stretch your legs.
  • Evening: Have an early dinner near the Gran Valira river and rest after the long flight.

Tip: Save the emergency numbers in your phone now. Dial 112 for general emergencies, 110 for police, 116 for medical emergencies and 118 for the fire brigade.

Day 2: Barri Antic and Casa de la Vall

  • Morning: Explore Barri Antic, the old quarter, with its narrow lanes and stone houses.
  • Afternoon: Visit Casa de la Vall, the historic parliament house. Visit times vary, so check before you go.
  • Evening: Walk the Rec del Solà, a flat path along an old water channel above the town.

Tip: Keep the first two days light while your body adjusts to the new time zone.

Day 3: Churches and bridges of the south

  • Morning: Take a bus to Santa Coloma to see its church with a round bell tower.
  • Afternoon: Continue to Pont de la Margineda, a medieval stone bridge over the river.
  • Evening: Stroll the centre of Sant Julià de Lòria before you head back.

Tip: Many small churches open only at set times or for guided visits. Check ahead so you are not turned away.

Day 4: Engolasters lake

  • Morning: Walk up from Escaldes-Engordany to Estany d'Engolasters, a lake ringed by pine forest.
  • Afternoon: Picnic by the water, then return on the same path.
  • Evening: Escaldes is known for its thermal waters. A spa evening is a good way to rest your legs.

Tip: Pack your own snacks and water. Trails have few places to buy food.

Day 5: Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley

  • Morning: Start early into the Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
  • Afternoon: Follow the trail past stone huts and old farming terraces. Turn back when you reach half your planned walking time.
  • Evening: Pack for tomorrow's move north.

Tip: Check the weather forecast the night before any long walk. Mountain weather can change within a day.

Day 6: Move to Ordino

  • Morning: Take a bus north to Ordino and drop your bags.
  • Afternoon: Visit Casa d'Areny-Plandolit, a historic family house that is now a museum.
  • Evening: Wander the village centre and its slate-roofed houses.

Tip: Ordino is quieter than the capital. Buy supplies before the evening.

Day 7: Sorteny Valley Natural Park

  • Morning: Head up to Sorteny Valley Natural Park, known for its alpine flowers in the warmer months.
  • Afternoon: Walk one of the marked trails at your own pace.
  • Evening: Return to Ordino for a slow dinner.

Tip: Stay on marked paths. It protects the plants and keeps you on route.

Day 8: The Iron Route

  • Morning: Walk the Iron Route, an old mining path between Ordino and Llorts lined with sculptures.
  • Afternoon: Explore the small village of Llorts.
  • Evening: Take the bus back and keep the night free.

Tip: This is a gentle day. Use it to recover before tomorrow's higher walk.

Day 9: Tristaina lakes

  • Morning: Travel up to the Tristaina lakes in the far north of the country.
  • Afternoon: Walk the path that links the three lakes, then come back down.
  • Evening: Rest in Ordino.

Tip: Transport up this valley can be seasonal. Check how you will get up and back before you set off.

Day 10: La Massana and Pal

  • Morning: Visit La Massana and its town centre.
  • Afternoon: Go on to the village of Pal and the church of Sant Climent de Pal.
  • Evening: Pack for the move east.

Tip: Strong walkers can swap this day for Comapedrosa Natural Park, home to Andorra's highest peak. It is a long day, so plan it with care.

Day 11: Canillo and Sant Joan de Caselles

  • Morning: Move east to Canillo, changing buses in Andorra la Vella if needed.
  • Afternoon: Visit Sant Joan de Caselles, a Romanesque church just outside the village.
  • Evening: Head to the Roc del Quer viewpoint, a platform over the valley.

Tip: The viewpoint is quieter later in the day. Bring a warm layer.

Day 12: Meritxell and Encamp

  • Morning: Visit the Sanctuary of Meritxell, Andorra's national shrine.
  • Afternoon: Continue to Encamp and see the church of Sant Romà de les Bons on its rocky hill.
  • Evening: Return to your base for an easy night.

Tip: Dress modestly for church visits and keep your voice low inside.

Day 13: Vall d'Incles

  • Morning: Walk into Vall d'Incles, a wide green valley near Canillo.
  • Afternoon: Picnic by the stream and follow the valley floor as far as you like.
  • Evening: Pack and enjoy a last dinner in the mountains.

Tip: If something goes wrong on a trail, call 112. The Andorran Fire Brigade leads mountain rescues.

Day 14: Depart for Singapore

  • Morning: Take a final short walk and buy any snacks for the journey.
  • Afternoon: Travel by road back to Barcelona or Toulouse.
  • Evening: Fly home to Changi.

Tip: Leave a generous buffer for the road. Mountain traffic and weather can slow you down.

Getting around and when to go

Getting around

  • Buses: These link the main parishes along the valley roads. They are the simplest way to follow this plan.
  • No trains: Andorra has no railway, so plan on buses, taxis or a car.
  • Hire car: This gives you freedom for high valleys. Expect winding mountain roads.
  • Walking: Marked trails connect many villages. Some are easy, some are steep.
  • Timetables: Services change by season. Check times before each day out.

When to go

  • Warmer months: These suit this walking plan best. Trails, lakes and flower meadows are easiest to reach. The June school holidays fall in this part of the year.
  • Winter: Snow changes the trip. Many trails in this plan become hard or closed.
  • Avalanche bulletins: Andorra's national weather service issues regular bulletins with hazard maps from around the start of December, depending on the snow. Read them before any winter outing.
  • Shoulder months: These can be quieter, but weather and transport vary. Check conditions before you book.
