Holiday information

 

A walking holiday in the Catalan Pyrenees

Explore the dramatic and unspoiled Catalan Pyrenees on this self-guided walking holiday, with luggage transported. Discover classic mountain landscapes boasting a diverse range of flora and fauna, enjoy delicious regional cuisine and stay at warm and welcoming hotels.
The Catalan Pyrenees are dramatic and unspoiled, dotted with stone villages clustered around Romanesque churches. This is magnificent walking country, enjoying the warmest climate of all the Pyrenean range, and our route continues to delight with its combination of superb hiking through unspoiled mountains and welcoming hotels. Watch short-toed and booted eagles soar above as you stride along ancient paths, accompanied by the melodic clanking of cowbells, and look out too for griffon vultures, choughs, wild boar, izard (Pyrenean chamois) and fire salamanders.

Our route takes you into an area largely unknown to outsiders that nevertheless boasts great scenic beauty, handsome villages and age-old traditions. You feel a real sense of adventure as you walk between the rolling hills and rugged peaks of the countryside, discovering hidden corners, inspirational viewpoints and authentic Catalan cuisine, which includes trout from the mountain streams, delicious sausages and cured meats, and robust wines from the coastal plains below.

  • Arrival in Ribes de Freser
    Night 1: at Hotel Els Caçadors (the first of two nights here).
    As your first night’s accommodation is on the day of travel, Day 1 is your first day of walking.
  • Choice of walks from Ribes de Freser: 3.5km or 7.5km

    Circular walk to west of Nuria: 3.5km, 2hrs
    For your full day in Ribes de Freser, we suggest taking the scenic rack railway (included) for the dramatic journey to the sanctuary of Nuria, one of Catalonia’s holiest sites, high in the mountains, 1,960 metres above sea level. Here you can enjoy one of two short circular walks into the hills from the monastery (or indeed both), before catching the train back down to Ribes. This first route traverses the steep forested western side of the valley, where views can bring about a sharp intake of breath, before it descends via a rocky trail, back to the valley's centrepiece lake.

    Circular walk to east of Nuria: 3.5km, 1.5hrs
    The second option mixes pine forest with ski slopes and grassy pastures on the valley's eastern side where, as well as featuring an arty Stations of the Cross section, there's a better chance of stumbling across isard (Pyrenean chamois), mouflon and possibly even a marmot or two.

    Linear walk from Nuria to Queralbs: 7.5km, 3.5hrs
    For a longer, more dramatic alternative, enjoy our route from Núria down to Queralbs, following the river as it cascades down the valley through pines and rhododendrons with the sound of rushing water regularly complemented every so often by the piercing whistle of the mountain train. Once in Queralbs, take a return train back to Ribes.

    Circular walk to west of Nuria: 3.5km
    Circular walk to east of Nuria: 3.5km
    Linear walk from Nuria to Queralbs: 7.5km
  • Choice of walks from Ribes de Freser to Llanars: both 21km

    Ribes de Freser to Llanars: 21km, 7.5hrs; shorter option: 15.5km, 6hrs
    Today you have a spectacular walk along undulating paths and tracks to the panoramic high pastures of the Collada Verda Pass (1,500 metres). From here, you descend gradually through a wild valley and via the astonishing village of La Roca, which seemingly clings to the rock, before reaching Llanars and the Hotel Grèvol. To shorten the day, we offer an optional transfer at the start of the walk.

    Lower-level option: 21km, 7.5hrs; shorter option: 15.5km, 6hrs
    We also provide notes for a lower-level route, which again can be shortened by taking a taxi to the start point.

    Ribes de Freser to Llanars: 21km
    Lower-level option: 21km
  • Circular walk via Ermita de Sant Antoni: 12.5km, 4.5hrs
    You may decide simply to relax on your day in Llanars, and make the most of the excellent facilities at the hotel. Alternatively, the neighbouring market town of Camprodon is just a two-kilometre stroll away, and boasts a 12th-century bridge, Romanesque monastery, small shops, bustling, ancient centre and interesting Art Nouveau quarter. For a longer walk, we suggest a route via Camprodon that weaves uphill through woodland to the hill-top Ermita de Sant Antoni where you are rewarded with 360-degree views – it's a great spot for a picnic.

  • Llanars to Setcases: 11.5km, 4.5hrs
    This thoroughly enjoyable route begins with a walk along the river valley to Vilallonga de Ter, where you climb up through a quirky sculpture park, before heading high above the valley, enjoying sweeping views of snow-capped peaks ahead. You walk through a mix of pastureland and forest, home to izard and wild boar, to reach Setcases ('seven houses') and the Hotel la Coma, where you stay two nights.
    Llanars to Setcases: 11.5km
    Waymarked trails
  • Choice of walks from Setcases: 9km or 11.5km

    Circular walk via Coma de l'Orri: 11.5km, 4.5hrs
    If you choose this first option, we transfer you from your hotel high up the valley into the heart of the mountains for a splendid ascent to the Coma de l'Orri (2,500 metres) and an equally breathtaking descent through flower-strewn mountain meadows where you may spot marmot and isard (Pyrenean chamois).

    Circular walk via Ruta del Carboner: 9km, 3.5hrs
    The second route is a lovely walk along the Ruta del Carboner ('charcoal-makers') which reveals some of the valley's secrets, taking in shady pine forests, several pretty waterfalls and a popular viewpoint which boast fabulous views down the valley. These woods are the haunt of wild boar - you may not see them but evidence of their snuffling for roots is everywhere. From the heights, you descend back to Setcases via shepherds' cabañas and woodland.

    Circular walk via Coma de l'Orri: 11.5km
    Circular walk via Ruta del Carboner: 9km
  • Setcases to Molló: 12.5km, 5hrs
    This last walk is a fitting climax to the holiday. You start with a steep and challenging ascent away from Setcases, across the northern flank of the Puig de les Agudes, to the extraordinary Lliens Pass (1,800 metres), where you are rewarded in clear weather with an unrivalled panorama: to one side, the dramatic Pyrenean peaks, to the other, the warm, wooded hills of the Garrotxa. You then remain high up as you continue to the similarly panoramic Fembra Morte Pass (a good picnic spot) before descending through grand landscapes to Molló, close to the French border, where you stay at the Hotel Calitxó.

Accommodation

You will find a warm welcome at all of our hand-picked hotels, and can look forward to savouring traditional local dishes featuring delicious sausages and cured meats, as well as trout from the rivers. Two of the hotels have a small spa, very tempting after a day of walking!

    We had an enjoyable if challenging week, mainly because of the high temperatures almost certainly the result of climate change.  The scenery was lovely on the high passes, and the flowers wonderful -- I have never seen the sulphur yellow furry anemone before, and the alpenrose was prolific as were the pinks.  Lots of butterflies. The food for the most part was excellent, the accomodation good, and the hotels were well chosen with helpful staff.

    Helpful tip -- make a careful tick inspection each evening -- they can be as small as a pinhead.  Take a pair of tweezers with you.

    We are just starting to explore Northern Spain and it is quite a revelation.  We very much enjoyed this holiday.  All the people we met were friendly and helpful and all the hotels were good.  There is so much of interest in the history, way of life and culture in Catalonia, and of course the food is great.  We had some concerns that the walks might be quite hard going but found them within our capabilities, although we did choose the walk options without the longest descents because of dodgy knees.  The countryside is lovely with quite a few wild flowers to see, beautiful views and the bonus of coming across wild horses, marmots and an ibex.  The weather was sunny every day but surprised us by being quite cool in the mornings and evenings. Good for walking and no mosquitos but with hindsight we would have taken another jumper.  We enjoyed taking the extra time to travel by train and have stopovers in Nimes, Girona and Paris.

    Steep climbs were rewarded with gorgeous vistas of peaceful Catalan countrysides. We loved the descent from Nuria, the luxurious hotel Grèvol, and the final 360° mountainous scenery from Setcases to Mollò.

    We have enjoyed many Inntravel trips & this walking holiday in the Catalan Pyrenees was no exception. The diversity of habitats - rocky ravines, forested slopes, upland pastures, flower rich meadows, river valleys, deciduous woods & open glades was wonderful. We were fortunate & blessed with warm, dry weather; the views & colours were stunning & the clouds spectacular in deep blue skies. There were long, tough climbs out of both Llanars & Setcases but well worth it & we saw very few people except in the heart of Nuria which was busy & noisy with outdoor school activities. Otherwise surrounded by the sound of cow bells, families of Marmots, Lammergeier on the walk down from Nuria, Griffon Vultures, Crag Martins & Swifts in & over all the villages & accompanied by the song of Blackcaps, Bonelli’s warblers & Blackbirds as we walked. And a quail calling from the crop fields as we arrived in Molló!

    Hotels were welcoming & comfortable, food ample & we particularly enjoyed the (refreshing!) outdoor pools at Hotel La Coma & Calitxó. Mid June but few shops or bars were open & Setcases was almost deserted so need to plan ahead for supplies. Inntravel luggage transfers & early taxi to train station in Ripoll all worked perfectly. Our highlights were the extraordinary expanses of wild flowers: alpenrose, broom, bugloss, orchids, Alpine Pasque flowers, gentians, wild thyme to name but a few. We booked our outward journey on public transport & would highly recommend it. Train to Paris, the lovely sleeper train (though we’ve heard that this is occasionally cancelled) from Paris Austerlitz to Latour de Carol high in the Catalan Pyrenees which connected with the local train to Ribes de Freser where the walking holiday begins.

    There were many highlights on this walk. The train journey up to Nuria is spectacular. The walk down from Nuria to Queralbs is marvellous once you stop and lift your eyes from the quite demanding path at your feet. On Day 4 do look out for the quirky sculptures as you climb out of Vilallonga, especially the dragon at the top of the climb.  The final day's walking with it wide open alpine views is a good reward for the effort of a longish climb from Setcases. 

    There were quite a few ticks about when we walked, so do carry a handy tick remover set to extract them cleanly.

    We booked this as a last minute holiday. Inntravel pulled it together in no time and it was excellent with fantastic walks and weather at the end of May so 10/10 to Inntravel!  Do use a GPS device or app on your phone (the Garmin GPSMap handheld and the MapOut app for a smartphone are great!)  We overextended ourselves on the first day doing the Option A circular walk and then Option C descent to Queralbs and had sore legs for the next few days. The rocky surface would have been slippery after rain. Watch out for the time of the last train back to Ribes as it's not clear from the timetable.

    We loved the area!! We loved the hotels especially the last 3! Looking forward to another trip next year. Will try to plan a bit further ahead so that we can have all the maps etc well ahead of time. Wonderful vacation.

    This is a great hiking holiday, with wonderful hiking routes on 5 of the 6 days. The only disappointing day was the circular hike around Llaners. The best days were Vall de Nuria loop hike and down the canyon, our improvised hike out of Setcases and the hike between Setcases and Mollo. Wish we had one more day in Setcases and one fewer day in Llaners. Would have loved to do more hiking in the mountians around Setcases. That area had the most stunning mountain scenery of the entire hike. Excellent hotels, great meals, excellent hoteliers and staff. Highest quality hotels and meals of the 3 Inntravel hiking holidays we've taken. We used GPX for route finidng and only used route notes for confirmation and areas of interest. GPX worked really well. Lots of wild flowers in last week of May. Be aware that the Option A hiking route in Setcases in late May had icy snow on Coll de la Marrana that was only passable with crampons. We had already been dropped off by the hotel, so improvised and hiked a steep route up to Pic de la Donna and back down to ski area parking lot, making an excellent loop hike. We then got very lucky that a Catalan hiker was willing to give us a lift back to Setcases. Ended up being our favorite hiking day. Bring gloves and a buff for extra warmth in the mornings at higher elevation hikes. The wind can make it quite chilly in the mornings at both Vall de Nuria hike and Coll de la Marrana hike.

    Our chosen walk on Day 1 was our group's personal favourite - we did Option A Nuria Circuit followed by Option C Nuria to Queralbs. We started off in brilliant sunshine and had hail storms and heavy rain at points along the way - but a fantastic walk with superb scenery. Meals were of a consistently high standard throughout the trip. Written instructions were good although we relied primarily on the downloaded maps that 2 of our group had - although having the written instructions as back up was useful.

    Excellent walking along valleys and hillsides in wonderful mountain scenery. The hotels were all great with comfortable rooms, excellent (and plentiful) food, and friendly and helpful staff. Our highlights were the day hike from Setcases when we added on the peaks of Fra de Fajol and Bastiments for spectacular views; the walk from Llanars to Setcases; the last day to Mollo; and wildlife spotting (marmots at Nuria, as well as izard and a hundred griffon vultures feasting on a dead cow (!) on the walk back down to Setcases).

    Lots of highlights, lovely hotels to arrive at after an active day, and great food with lots of variety. Excellent walks which came with superb instructions making the whole experience relaxing.
 

FAQs

If you have any questions relating to this or any other Inntravel holiday, our friendly travel experts will be happy to help. You might also find our General FAQs section helpful.
  • Yes, prior to going on holiday you will be able to download GPX tracks so that you can follow your route on your smartphone or dedicated GPS device if you wish. It’s entirely up to you whether or not you use them – our detailed, step-by-step route notes remain the principal means of guiding you from A to B – but we provide them as a secondary means of navigation for additional reassurance when walking.
  • We can book a wide range of routes from the UK with a variety of airlines. As well as being more convenient for you to book all elements of your holiday together, it also means that we’ll accept liability for your travel arrangements, so if things go wrong, such as the airline going bust, we’ll make suitable alternative arrangements for you. The fee for this service is £35 per person (£15 for children aged 2-11). More information on flights >
  • Absolutely! We are experts in tailored rail travel. Making use of sleeper trains or stopovers in cities along the route, we can get you from London to virtually anywhere in mainland Europe. We can even make arrangements to Mallorca, Sicily and Norway with a combination of ferries and rail. Please contact us to discuss your plans.
  • We can’t book flights that originate outside the UK, but if you wanted to book your own flights to London (or elsewhere in the UK), we can make all onward travel arrangements (including flights) from there. Alternatively, if you are booking your own flights to an airport in continental Europe that’s appropriate for your holiday, we can book onward rail travel and/or taxis. More information about how we can tailor holidays for customers outside the UK >
  • Since our holidays are self-guided, we recommend calling us for a chat about your plans before making a booking, especially if it’s the first time you’ve booked with us.
    The price panel shows the supplement for a single room and also the single traveller charge (this covers (luggage) transfers and other costs which are usually shared between two people).
  • Once you’ve decided on your exact itinerary (our travel experts will be happy to offer advice), you need to provide us with your party’s details, either by phone or via our booking form. At this point we also ask you to pay a deposit so that we can secure a room for you immediately on confirming availability with the hotel(s). If it turns out that we can’t secure the accommodation for the holiday you’ve requested, or offer an acceptable alternative, we’ll refund your deposit promptly and in full. After booking your accommodation and other key elements, we'll then book your travel (or you can do so if you’re making your own arrangements) and send you a Booking Confirmation and Invoice.

  • Yes, it’s something we insist on, even for holidays in the UK. The vast majority of holidays go smoothly, but when things go wrong, it can be expensive to put them right. Buying a new pair of walking boots after your suitcase is stolen mightn’t seem so bad, but the bill for being airlifted down from a mountain with a broken leg or flown home while still recovering from an illness or accident can incur a five or six-figure bill.

    Many insurers offer travel insurance (you can find details on our insurance page of a policy that you may like to consider if you are a UK resident), but you do need to make sure that you’re covered for medical emergencies – including falling ill with Covid-19 while on holiday – and repatriation. We also recommend that you are covered for other eventualities, such as cancellation and loss of luggage and passports.

    When you purchase a policy, be sure to check that it covers the activities you'll be doing on holiday and that it is adequate for your own individual needs.
  • It is your responsibility to ensure you are in possession of the correct travel documents, with the correct validity. If you’re a UK citizen, you need a full British passport to travel to Spain, but not a visa (please note, however, that a new travel authorisation system is being introduced). If you are a citizen of another country, you’ll need to check requirements with the national embassy or your own consulate.

    Current information regarding vaccinations and travel health advice for UK citizens can be found through the Travel Health Pro website. You must make sure you have adequate insurance cover for illness, accidents and repatriation (see the insurance question). You should also apply for a Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) if your EHIC has expired (if you have a still-valid EHIC, you can use this until it expires).
  • (Castilian) Spanish is one of several official languages; Catalan, Basque and Gallego have equal status in Catalonia, the Basque Country and Galicia, respectively. The currency is the Euro. Spanish time is GMT/UTC + 1. It uses Daylight Saving Time, so in summer is on BST + 1.

  • The UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) provides up-to-date, country-by-country travel advice, as well as information on security, local laws, passports and visas for UK citizens.

  • You are the best judge of your child’s/children’s capabilities. We are happy to take bookings for families of older children/teenagers if they walk regularly, love the outdoors and are comfortable with the distances and ascent/descent involved. Please note that the bedrooms at most of the accommodation we use will normally only sleep a maximum of 3 people, and sometimes only 2.
