Espai d’alta muntanya característic del paisatge del Pirineu gironí. L’accés a la vall només és possible a peu o amb un tren cremallera que enllaça Ribes de Freser amb Queralbs i Núria.

Spectacular place to do sports, walk, experience the high mountains and enjoy the air of the Vall de Nuria

The Sanctuary of the Virgin of Núria is a pilgrimage site located at 2000 meters above sea level. It is in a privileged place: in the center of a valley and surrounded by mountains such as Puigmal or Pic de Noucreus. In addition to the church, it also has a hotel, a hostel and restaurant spaces. It can only be accessed by the rack train that leaves from Ribes Enllaç, Ribes-Vila and Queralbs.

Estany de can Roca, with calm and very nourished water, is home to many species of plants and animals that live in it. And about 100 meters away, we will find what would be the Pou de Glaç, where snow and ice were stored to preserve food... etc etc.

After going up the track for a while it's worth stopping and contemplating the lagoon and the spectacular views. I imagine that it is the result of the thaw and the rising of these last days.

Emblematic sanctuary located at 2000m in a valley of the Pyrenees of great beauty, surrounded by important Catalan peaks such as Puigmal or Pic de Noucreus. It can be accessed on foot or with the rack railway from Queralbs, inaugurated in 1931.

This is the highest pool in Torrent de la Cabana, as well as the largest and deepest of the 7 pools on the official route. A few meters further up there is the Bar la Parada del Gorg open from April to November, only holidays and weekends (in August it is open every day).

The largest and deepest gorg of the 7. It has a nice waterfall. Ideal for bathing and relaxing with family, friends and dogs. In the summer months there is a bar if you fancy an ice cream or coffee. In the middle of summer it gets very crowded, so for a quieter experience I recommend coming during the week or out of season.
