Andorra Valleys Summer Hiking & Thermal Spa
The old town, the World Heritage Madriu Valley, Tristaina Lakes, and Ordino mountain village—the best of Andorra in four summer days.
A self-drive round trip from Barcelona. Stay the first two nights in Escaldes, making it easy to explore the old town, soak in the thermal spa, and hike into the Madriu Valley. Move up to Ordino on the third night to hike the high-altitude lakes. The pace is relaxed with half-day hikes, perfect for first-time couples and friends. To ensure you only hike one valley per day, the Canillo line on the east side has been omitted.
In early June, there may still be snow at higher lake areas; mountain weather is highly changeable, so lake hikes are best started in the morning.
