The Iron path
Located on the parroquia of Ordino, this path combines nature and culture, taking us to the original Pyrenean Iron Path that crossed Catalonia, Aquitania, Ariege, Guipuzcoa and Vizcaya. It’s a 4 kilometers route, almost at the same level, that can be traversed in an hour. You will be able to discover the resources bind to the metallurgic industry in Andorra, a very vivid activity on the Principality from the XVII Century to the late XIX Century.

The Path of the Toll Bullidor

There, you will enjoy beautiful views of the village of Meritxell and the Sanctuary of the patron saint of Andorra.

It has 12km and a little gradient, so it’s perfect to spend a morning or afternoon hiking with your family or friends. The walk starts at Prats (Canillo) and last for about 4 hours, during which you will cross Canillo, Encamp and Escaldes-Engordany. All the path is equipped with water points and rest places and you will enjoy spectacular panoramic views, forest areas and the Romanic chapels of San Miquel de Prats and Sant Miquel d’Engolasters.
