ACCES AND PARKING<\/h2>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

The main entrances to the valley are described below. It should be taken into account that there are many more, and that each of these paths may have forks or alternatives. However, these are the most significant ones and the ones that are signposted.<\/p>\n

Remember that\u00a0the\u00a0Madriu-Perafita-Claror\u00a0Valley\u00a0is a\u00a0pedestrian environment, motorized vehicles\u00a0are prohibited.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”34433″ img_size=”full” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https:\/\/www.madriu-perafita-claror.ad\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/accesos.pdf”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”34430″ img_size=”full” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https:\/\/www.madriu-perafita-claror.ad\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/accesos.pdf”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_tta_tabs][vc_tta_section title=”From Encamp” tab_id=”1559742248338-f26e82c1-bda0″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

FROM Pleta dels Orris \"\"<\/a><\/h5>\n

To get to La Pleta dels Orris, you need to get to the end of the Cortals Road (CS-220). There, you can leave your car and go back on foot, along the road, to the climbing wall. After this, you must cross the hanging bridge and go to La Pleta dels Orris, where you have two options:<\/p>\n

1.- carry along the same path that goes along the crest line to the peak of the Griu and then along the Collada d\u2019Emportona, where you should take the GR7 to the Refugi de l\u2019Illa (this path goes along the Collada de Pessons).<\/p>\n

2.- follow the path from Campe\u00e0 which crosses the Obac dels Cortals, goes to Lake Ensagents and continues to the Collada de Pessons.<\/p>\n

FROM Ensagents\"\"<\/a><\/h5>\n

Take the Cortals road (CS-220), and approximately 1 km after Sant Jaume dels Cortals Church, there are the panels indicating the path to enter the valley. Follow the GRP as far as Collada de Pessons (going past the Refugi d\u2019Ensagents) and from there, take the GR7 to the Refugi de l\u2019Illa..<\/p>\n

FROM cam\u00ed de les \u00c0gols \"\"<\/a><\/h5>\n

The path begins at the junction of\u00a0the Cortals road (CS-220) with the\u00a0Borda de les Pardines, just before the kilometer point PK3 of the CS 220, on the right side of a water tank. There we find a parking area. An aluminum panel indicates the beginning of the Agols path. Take this path, which follows a route that passes near the Gargantillar lakes and near the Rod\u00f3 lake and which finally arrives at the refuge of the Illa.<\/p>\n

FROM Pessons \"\"<\/a><\/h5>\n

We will go up the road CG-2 to Grau Roig, where we will leave the car to continue on foot to the first of the Pessons lakes (l’estany Primer), from here we have two ways to get to the Illa refuge:<\/p>\n

1.- through the Pessons pass: we follow the GR7\/GRP that passes by the lakes: Primer, Forcat, round, Meligar, and Pessons, until we reach the pass of the same name and from here to the Illa refuge.<\/p>\n

2.- by the Montmal\u00fas pass: take the path that goes up the Montmal\u00fas pass and the Coma Estremera lake, a few meters after the pass, fork to the right in the direction of Illa refuge (yellow markings).[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”From Andorra la Vella” tab_id=”1559742248431-365d20fc-9f22″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

ALONG THE Comella ROAD (CS 101) \"\"<\/a><\/h5>\n

This is the main entrance from Andorra la Vella.\u00a0 Some 4 km along the Comella road, you will get to the \u201cpicnic point\u201d (punt de berenar) next to the Alberg La Comella; there is a parking area where you can leave your vehicle. There is a path here that goes up to Prat Primer through Riguer, going past El Cortal de la Plana. When you get to Prat Primer, carry along the steep path that takes you to the Refugi de Prat Primer, from where you enter the valley, either along the left-hand path (along El Coll Pa) or by going straight ahead (along the Collada de Prat Primer). Both paths take you to Claror, the entrance to the Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley.<\/p>\n

A less direct option than the Prat Primer path is the forest path: from the same departure point as before, take the forest track, carry along the Palomera path and then go along El Planell del Ras path. Carry on towards La Collada de la Ca\u00fclla along the Maians path, and finally take the Certeressos path until you come to the Refugi de Prat Primer.<\/p>\n

From El Pont de la Margineda (in Santa Coloma)\"\"<\/a><\/h5>\n

Cross the bridge and carry on towards the old highway. Carry along Costa Seda, then along Pica Romana, towards the Collada de la Ca\u00fclla, the Certeressos path and you will come to the Refugi de Prat Primer.<\/p>\n

From El Rec de l\u2019Obac in Andorra la Vella\"\"<\/a><\/h5>\n

Another option is to take the GR7 at the Rec de l\u2019Obac in Andorra la Vella, carry along the Solobre path and head towards the Collada de la Ca\u00fclla, the Certeressos path and you will come to the Refugi de Prat Primer.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”From Sant Juli\u00e0 de L\u00f2ria” tab_id=”1559742248523-81e72a83-a11d”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

From the Font des Traginers\"\"<\/a><\/h5>\n

On the border with Spain, hedged towards the Refugi de la Rabassa until you get there, then carry on to Roca de Pimes, Solana del Caborreu, Coll de Finestres, Camp Ramonet as far as the Pic Negre where you enter into protected territory.<\/p>\n

From the centre of Sant Juli\u00e0 de L\u00f2ria\"\"<\/a><\/h5>\n

In Avinguda de Can\u00f2lich, take the footpath towards Nagol. Carry on to Cert\u00e9s, as far as Bordes del Manyat following the GR7, continue along the Collada de la Ca\u00fclla, Prat Primer and towards the Collada de Prat Primer where you go into the valley.
\nBear in mind that once you get to Coll de Costa Seda, there is the alternative option of taking the path that leaves from the Pont de la Margineda in Andorra la Vella (the two paths cross each other here and again at the Collada de la Ca\u00fclla, the end of the route is the same).<\/p>\n

FROM Perafita \"\"<\/a><\/h5>\n

From the peak of Perafita, carry on towards La Torre dels Soldats as far as Port Negre. There, you cross the path that comes out of the Font de Traginers and take the same route.<\/p>\n

ALONG THE FORESTAL TRACK \"\"<\/a><\/h5>\n

The forest track enters from Spain (Fonts dels Traginers) and goes to La Rabassa where it meets the secondary road, where there is also the GRP path that goes from El Cortal del Folch (and that can also be reached from Arcavell). The track ends up in Camp de Claror and from there on you should take the same path as described from the Font de Traginers.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”From Escaldes Engordany” tab_id=”1559742248627-c209b3e1-f92a”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

FROM la Plana ROAD \"\"<\/a><\/h5>\n

Some 50 metres from the crossroads between the Engolasters road (CS-200) and the Plana road (CS-101), following the Plana road, you reach the foot of the Cam\u00ed de Muntanya, which is the most direct entry into the Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley from Escaldes-Engordany.<\/p>\n
