The colours of the Pyrenees are amazing the whole year. Feel the chilly wind and listen as the cry of a hawk pierces the silence, and marvel that just two hours ago you were surrounded by the busy Barcelona. The Vall de Núria is a mountain valley located at 2000m in the province of Girona. Crowned by peaks that they reach over 3000m, the valley is home to the Sanctuary of the Virgin of Núria, which also includes an important ski resort with excellent facilities for hikers and families.

There you will be able to take amazing pictures and admire the breathtaking landscape.
You will travel back in time with the historic art visiting the Romanic icon of the Virgin Mary from the XII century and other historic paintings when we reach the Sanctuary.You will experience the mountain flora and fauna where marmots call out with a shrill squeak, birds of prey glide and swoop, and succulent plants with bright flowers fill the rockeries during a walking route. After an amazing morning, you will be driven to Camprodón, in order to discover the village and enjoy the local gastronomy.
