Active Pyrenees Family Holiday
8 days - from $943
An action-packed, centre-based summer activity week cycling, walking and rafting in the fresh air of the beautiful Pyrenees mountains
HIGHLIGHTS:
- Spectacular mountain scenery
- Mountain biking & hiking
- White water rafting & 4WD trips
Nestled in the heart of the Pyrenees, Andorra provides the perfect base for an activity-filled week in the mountains. The walking here is great and youâll get straight out there to explore the beautiful Siscarro Lakes and the Incles Valley.
Giving your legs a rest, jump into 4WD vehicles and follow an old smugglersâ route off-road, stopping to visit farming hamlets and take in the breathtaking views.
Crossing into Spain, enjoy a fun afternoon white water rafting. The river is fast flowing and rough in parts - exciting! More cautious families can be taken on calmer sections of the river. Exploring the area on mountain bikes youâll ride to Engolasters Lake before choosing a route suitable to your ability through the woods. A traditional barbecue and quick descent finish off the day with a thrill.
