Highlights:
- Spectacular mountain scenery
- Mountain biking & hiking
- White water rafting & 4WD excursions
Nestled in the heart of the Pyrenees, Andorra provides the perfect place for an activity-filled week in the mountains. The walking here is great and you'll get straight out there by exploring the beautiful Siscarro Lakes and the Incles Valley, where you can hike above the tree line. Giving your legs a rest, you jump into 4WD vehicles and follow an old smugglers' route off-road, stopping to visit farming hamlets and take in the breathtaking views.
Crossing into Spain, you ride mountain bikes to the start of your white water rafting experience. The river is fast flowing and rough in parts - exciting but not dangerous. More cautious families can be taken on calmer sections of the river. Back in Andorra you drive to the Cortals Valley. Using mountain bikes you'll ride to Engolasters Lake before choosing a route suitable to your ability through the woods. A Pyrenean BBQ and fast bike descent finish off the day with a thrill.
