The Principality of Andorra is a micro-state in the Pyrenees mountains chain, found on the border of it's (much larger) neighbours France & Spain. This trip will see us journey into the mountainous landscape of the 16th smallest country in the world. From our valley base we will select a route into a different part of this entirely mountainous state for 3 of our days before returning to our accommodation each night. Two days and one night will be spent making a trek to stay overnight in a Mountain ‘refugio’ before aiming to summit the highest peak in Andorra, ‘Pic de Coma Pedrosa’, then descending back to our valley base.
All bookings can be made through Andorra Mountain Collective.
SUGGESTED ITINERARY:
Day 1: Arrive in Arinsal. Evening meeting for group introductions and to discuss the exciting week ahead.
Days 2 to 6: 5 days of walking in the beautiful Pyrenean mountainous principality. Conditions permitting we'll enjoy a 2 day round trip to reach Andorra's highest summit Pic de Coma Pedrosa (2,942m), including an over night stay in a mountain 'refugio'.
Day 7 : After a good nights sleep it's time to head home.
We highly recommend taking the opportunity of visiting the vibrant Catalan capital of Barcelona for a couple of days before returning to the UK. Or stay & explore more of the Pyrenees at your own leisure.
(Please note: adverse weather conditions, or unforeseen events, may require changes to proposed itinerary)
This trip would be ideal for anyone looking to enjoy mountain trekking overseas and would also be ideal as an introduction to using a mountain Refugi/o. There may be long days and steep ascents/descents during this trip so an appropriate level of physical fitness prior to the trip would be beneficial.
INCLUDED:
- Planning, organisation, logistics and leadership from a fully qualified and experienced International Mountain Leader. Mark Valentine is the first, and currently only, British International Mountain Leader with the legally required validation to operate within Andorra.
- 5-nights' accommodation with bed & breakfast in the cosy Xalet Verdu in Arinsal
- One night stay in the Comapedrosa Refugi in a communcal bunk area with an evening meal & breakfast included
- Shared return transfers door-to-door from either Barcelona or Toulouse AIrport (Please speak with Andorra Mountain Collective first before booking flights to ensure there is a suitable scheduled transfer service to bring you up to resort in time)
ACCOMMODATION/TRANSFERS: During our Andorra adventures we are delighted to be working with our in country partners Andorra Mountain Collective.
PLEASE NOTE: We recommend taking out travel, personal accident and cancellation insurance.
