Itinerary

Pont de la Margineda Stop 1
It is a medieval bridge from XIV century. It is flowing water underneath all year around. The vegetation is different in each season. It is located in the south of the country, near the Spanish border about 850 meters above the sea level. Near the bridge is known used to live the first inhabitants in the current territory of Andorra, about 12,000 years ago.
15 min
Casa de la Vall Stop 2
It is an old house where took place the Andorra's government since 1580 till 2011. The entrance to the place is voluntary, and costs 5 €. If some of the members are not interesting in Casa de la Vall, they can spend 1 hour doing shopping and walking up the streets of the Andorra la Vella Old Town.
1h
Mirador del Roc del Quer Stop 3
This is a spectacular view point located about 1,950 meters above the sea level. From this place we can see a tin sculpture representing a man watching the views surrounded by a bottom glass platform. The mountain views belong to the Canillo parish: capital town and some of their surrounding like some picks and ski runs. The top of the mountains will have some snow at least 10 months of the year. It is an optional stop and the cost is 5€ per person (not included; if the cafe is closed they will only accept cash payment in euros).
30 min
Coll d'Ordino Stop 4
The name of this attraction is just Ordino. A small village, capital of one of the seven municipalities of Andorra. In Ordino we can walk up in the narrow streets where we can see some XVII century homes, a nice church, famliy homes, and even a few cafes in the main street. I can also show you another charming village in Andorra, smaller than Ordino and with almost no services, but it will be a secret between you and me.
45 min
Ordino Stop 5
From the quick growth from the second half of XX century, there are still a few towns still preserving the charm from the past. One of these examples is Ordino. In Ordino we can walk down the streets in the old town where we will check out some houses from XVII century, like Casa Rosell or Casa Areny-Plandolit, as well as its barroque church, Saint Cornelius and Saint Cebrian. For the ones who prefer watch a really old church built in the middle ages I can recommend you Sant Miquel d'Engolasters (XII century) or Santa Coloma (late VIII-early IX century), this last one cost 7€ and includes a small museum with an audiovisual experience and shows three old paintings XII-XIII, ripped out in XX century from andorran churches but recovered by the country.
