Pirineos Cien Lagos

Pirineos Cien Lagos is a haven for outdoor adventurers. As well as being 15 minutes from Aigüestortes i Estany Sant Maurici National Park, the site is less than an hour’s drive from Parc Naturel de l’Alt Pirineu, home to the highest peaks in Catalonia. L’Alt Pirineu is a top spot for exploration, which you can do by foot, by bike or on horseback. Watch out for some of the endangered species in the park as you go and you might see brown bears, bearded vultures or the Pyrenean desman. The adventure continues outside the park: go rafting on the Noguera Pallaresa river, rent a bike to explore the spectacular valley, or descend the ravines along the river valley – all from a base in Esterri d’Àneu. When you’re tired out from your many high-energy adventures, slow things down with visits to some of the nearby villages, where traditional stone architecture and well-preserved Romanesque churches paint a stunning picture.
