Andorra Day Hike: Vall d’Incles & Pyrenees Lakes

Explore Andorra’s natural beauty on a guided hike from Vall d’Incles to the Refugi de Juclar. Follow scenic trails, admire alpine lakes, and experience the Pyrenees in their golden autumn glow.
Discover the natural beauty of Andorra on a guided day hike from Andorra la Vella. Begin your adventure at the Tourist Office in the city center (Av. Meritxell, 73, AD500 Andorra la Vella) at 8:00 am in the morning. From there, walk together to the bus station and take a transfer (included) to the Vall d’Incles, a picturesque valley surrounded by towering peaks.

Start your hike with a gentle 1-hour walk along the valley floor, following a scenic road with magnificent views of the surrounding Pyrenees mountains. The trail then climbs gradually on a series of zig-zagging paths, making the ascent easier and more enjoyable. After about 3 hours from the start, you’ll reach the Refugi de Juclar. Although the hut is closed in autumn, the area offers spectacular views of the nearby Juclar lakes and surrounding peaks, making it the perfect spot to enjoy your packed lunch in the crisp mountain air. After lunch break, return the same way, descending through the valley before taking the bus back to Andorra la Vella.
