You will end the day with an astronomy activity to learn about the night sky and Pyrenean mythology while tasting local spirits. If you want more, you can extend the trip with an extra activity before returning home.

Day 2: SNOWSHOEING ROUTE AND ASTRONOMY

After breakfast, we suggest a half-day snowshoeing route through Alt Pirineu Natural Park, the largest protected area in Catalonia.

It includes several valleys and mountains that have as main quality their humanized landscapes and livestock activity with extensive pastures and meadows. The park is also the land of emblematic animals such as the capercaillie, the bearded vulture and the brown bear.

First, we will see the 360º views from the viewpoint of the peak, and then we will descend through the forests of Port Ainé enjoying the winter landscape.

Once back at the accommodation, you will have the afternoon free to find a place to eat and relax after an intense day of activity.
