Hiking Trails - GR 11 (Senda Pirenaica)

The Val d'Aran is crossed by sections of the GR 11, the long-distance Pyrenean path, offering multi-day treks through stunning alpine landscapes. Numerous local trails, ranging from easy riverside walks to challenging ascents, lead to high mountain lakes (e.g., Estany de Sant Maurici via nearby Aigüestortes), panoramic viewpoints, and traditional refuges. Popular routes include the Circ de Colomèrs (a loop of 7 lakes) and trails around Artiga de Lin. Maps are widely available at tourist offices. Most trails are free, requiring only proper gear.
