L´Espelt

Before owt else, we'd recommend a wander straight from site off or up into the loveliness of the surrounds and peaks of Alt Pirineu Natural Park, home to many animal and plant protected species as well as the biggest glacial lake in the Spanish Pyrenees, Lake Certascan, and Catalonia's highest peak, the Pica d’Estats. Info, exhibitions and workshops on Alt Pirineu can be found in its offices at Llavorsí. Elsewhere around Camping L'Espelt, a tourist train is two kilometres away and Catalonian petrol mines within ten; the modernist Artigas Gardens are at the La Pobla de Lillet town of Guardiola de Berguedà four kilometres from the site. See also one of Catalonia's most well-known mountains, the peak of Pedraforca 20km away, and, if you prefer to plunge down slopes rather than haul yourself sweatily up them, the nearest ski resort is about 25km away.
