Good value. Beautiful places to visit. Excellent guide.
- Andorra Ski & Apres
Tess was an outstanding guide who made the entire experience both unique and unforgettable. Everything was handled effortlessly, ensuring there was never a dull moment. The holiday flowed smoothly, and from the very start, Tess made sure everyone felt comfortable, and was always ready to help if needed. I would absolutely love to have Tess as a guide again!
Alberto, the head guide, was great! He contacted me prior to the date and made everything easy. He picked me up in Barcelona and from that point on, everything was taken care of. All of the guides were exceptional with their ability, knowledge and caring. I didn't know what to expect when I booked it but I am So Glad I Did!!!
Hiking Tour in Spanish Pyrenees 10 days
Travel Pyrenees your way
We take great pride in our Pyrenean hiking routes - they're a big hit with our travelers. There's this fantastic multi-day trek from St Jean Pied de Port to Logroño that follows old pilgrim trails, winding through medieval villages and also Rioja's lovely wine regions. Over in Andorra, the trails go properly high up into Sorteny Nature Reserve where you'll find 700 different plant species and lovely mountain lakes like Cabana Sorda. Our groups really love the paths around Aigues Tortes National Park - it's great for spotting bearded vultures, and Sant Maurici Lake is something special with those twin Encantats peaks reflecting in the water. The mix of tough walks and cultural discoveries works really well; you might spend your morning climbing up to Collada Fonda at 2,350m, then explore ancient Roman churches like Sant Joan de Caselles in the afternoon.
See all Hiking & Trekking toursThe Pyrenees cycling scene is particularly good around Costa Brava, where you can pedal through old medieval towns and switch between coastal roads and inland Emporda paths. One of our most clever tours uses chalk marks on the route so you can just focus on riding instead of checking maps, and there's another that brings electric bikes into play for those steeper mountain sections. Girona's become quite the cycling hub - it's where the pros train - and you can ride the car-free Carrilet path before stopping at local wineries. If you're up for a proper challenge, the Cap de Creus routes dish up some serious climbs, but those coastal views make it worth every pedal stroke.
Explore a wide diversity of coach / bus tours through Pyrenees. We have 6 adventures that vary from 3 days to 7 days. With the greatest number of departures in January, this is also the most popular time of the year.
The Pyrenees offer some really solid active tours that mix up different outdoor activities. You can hop on a raft down the Noguera River and then tackle the technical bits of Estaron Canyon - we've seen lots of parents light up watching their kids master new skills there. Up at Sant Maurici Lake, our travelers keep telling us how the hiking routes hit just the right balance of challenge and scenery. Around Sort, you can mix it up with kayaking and abseiling if you want variety, or go for some serious water action with hydrospeeding and climbing. There's also this neat tour that combines Catalan cooking with daily doses of mountain biking and river activities.

Explore really shines for people heading out solo - our travelers consistently mention how the guides make everyone feel included while keeping the whole group on track. The itineraries hit a sweet spot between structure and flexibility, so you can join group activities, head off on your own or just relax at the hotel. It's particularly good for first-time solo travelers who want some built-in companionship without feeling stuck in a rigid schedule. ExperiencePlus nails the cycling tour format with clever touches that make a big difference on the road. Their arrow marking system means you can pedal at your own pace without constantly checking maps, and they've clearly put thought into picking routes that connect you with local life. The guides know when to offer support and when to let riders explore independently. We've had some issues reported with Stoke Travel's Andorra Snow Weekend though, specifically around how they handle unexpected problems. Several customers told us they struggled to get clear answers about refunds when weather caused cancellations, and the communication could definitely be better when plans need to change. While the actual snow experience might be fine, their customer service needs work, especially compared to how smoothly Explore and ExperiencePlus manage similar situations.

Our Basque Country routes from Bilbao blend culture and food really nicely - travelers tell us they love trying pintxos in the fishing village of Bermeo and touring Rioja's vineyards. Cyclists can ride from Girona to Costa Brava on quiet roads like the Carrilet trail, stopping at wineries near Palamos and exploring pretty medieval towns like Begur and Pals. The Andorra ski packages give you 5 full days on the slopes plus fun aprés-ski and fancy dress days, though some guests say they'd like the daily schedules a bit earlier.
Ten days really opens up what you can discover here. Our small Spanish group tours include art historians showing you around Madrid's Prado Museum and local experts leading walks through Segovia's old streets. Barcelona gives you proper time with Gaudi's architecture before heading to San Sebastian for seriously good food. Active types enjoy our surf houses near San Sebastian - 9 nights of surf coaching, daily yoga and guided walks in Pagoeta nature reserve. The Camino tours from St Jean Pied de Port to Logrono show you what pilgrim life is really like - walkers love how it mixes countryside views, old monasteries and even that quirky wine fountain at Irache.
Demographics
The San Sebastian Surf House just clicks with solo travelers - you'll jump into daily surf lessons and yoga sessions where meeting people happens naturally. The social vibe really works, from sharing meals prepared by our resident chef to gathering with new friends for sunset views from the hilltop. We run regular pintxos tours into San Sebastian's old town, so you're never alone when exploring Basque food culture. The Cortals Valley mountain biking tours attract plenty of solo riders too; there's nothing like tackling challenging trails to bring people together. Over in Sort, we see lots of individual travelers joining our adventure programs - activities like canyoning and hydrospeed tend to turn strangers into friends pretty quickly.
Our younger guests love hitting the slopes in Andorra, where proper skiing meets buzzing aprés-ski spots and good times. The San Sebastian surf programs really deliver - you'll go from total beginner to confident surfer with coaches who know their stuff, plus there's plenty of beer, wine and also sangria for post-surf hangouts. The Pyrenees multi-sport tours pack in proper adventures; you might start your morning dropping into Estaron canyon and finish sharing stories over local wines. Most tours include guided food walks through San Sebastian's old quarter, and groups often end up at local spots like Mojito bar, which our younger travelers rate as their favorite night out.
For families looking to explore the Pyrenees, our most popular tours center around Sort, where kids gain real confidence through guided activities. The Noguera River programs combine whitewater rafting with abseiling - parents tell us watching their children become "fearless and brave" on these trips is incredible. Another excellent option takes you to Sant Maurici Lake, with easy walking routes perfectly suited for ages 8 and up, plus local picnics featuring traditional longaniza sausage and farmhouse goat cheese. The Andorra multi-activity packages work brilliantly with teens, mixing winter sports with summer activities like zip-lining around Engolasters Lake.

Best time to visit Pyrenees
- Fall / Autumn 2025
Autumn in the Pyrenees brings excellent self-drive tours through Catalonia, where you can take your time exploring places that catch your eye. The routes connect medieval villages and coastal roads, with comfortable 4-star hotels waiting each evening. Our customers love discovering local markets in Palamos and visiting wine cellars around Palafrugell whenever they choose. Mountain passes see fewer visitors in fall, and Costa Brava's coastal views transform with rich autumn hues. Tours combining Madrid with northern Spain work particularly well this time of year - you'll walk through historic sites with art historians, explore Segovia's old quarter and also discover traditional Basque cuisine in San Sebastian. The routes through Andorra and into the South of France showcase seasonal changes across diverse landscapes, from mountain valleys to medieval towns like Carcassonne and Foix. Our guests often tell us how pleasant the cooler temperatures make their explorations, especially when visiting Montserrat Abbey or wandering through the historic streets of Girona.

The ski programs in Andorra have really carved out a niche, with several well-designed options to choose from. Our Soldeu-based tour gets travelers right into the mix of skiing and social time - you'll find yourself swapping stories over drinks with fellow skiers after good days on the slopes. There's also this smart setup that starts in Barcelona and heads to the Andorran runs; first-time skiers love it because the instructors take their time and know how to build confidence step by step. After hitting the slopes, the Caldea thermal spa visits help ease those muscle aches. For those who know their way around black diamonds, we've got tours with off-piste sections and nighttime snowshoe walks under the stars. One of our most popular options splits the day between morning ski runs and afternoon visits to mountain villages, where you can sample local wines and meet the residents.

Which Pyrenees regions are best for different activities?
The French side really shines when it comes to those challenging hikes high mountain passes and spectacular spots like Ordesa y Monte Perdido National Park. Head to the Spanish Pyrenees and you'll find gentler trails perfect cultural stops like Besalú and Girona plus some fantastic rafting on the Noguera River. Andorra's got it all sorted for winter skiing while families love the hiking routes around their scenic lakes — the Incles Valley leading up to Cabana Sorda Lake is particularly stunning.
What local specialties should I sample during my trip?
Catalonia takes real pride in its food culture and Sort's traditional Catalonian meals starting at €25 are definitely worth checking out. The Basque Country's really where food comes alive though — especially those amazing pintxos (think fancy bar snacks) paired with local Txakoli wine in spots like Bilbao and San Sebastian. Wine lovers should definitely hit the Penedes route in Catalonia where you can tour wineries and sample some fantastic local bottles. Our Sensations of the Basque Country tour lets you dive deep into traditional Basque cooking and proper pintxo culture.
Are there easier walking routes in the Pyrenees for less experienced hikers?
You'll find plenty of gentler options! Andorra's Incles Valley is perfect for easy-going walks along the river up to the beautiful Cabana Sorda Lake. The Camino Frances is another great choice — it's well-marked and you can pick sections that match your fitness level with transfers between stages especially from Viana to Logroño. For something really relaxed try the Carrilet in Girona — it's a car-free path following an old railway line that's perfect for easy walks or cycling which you can experience on our Cycling Girona tour.
How can I experience local culture beyond typical tourist attractions?
For a real taste of local life head to traditional Basque Sidra Houses where unlimited cider flows and multi-course meals create an authentic cultural experience. Stay in family-run spots like the Hotel Soldeu Maistre on our Walking in the Pyrenees tour where local Catalan style gives you that genuine mountain feel. Small mountain villages like Canillo with Andorra's tallest church tower give you a genuine glimpse into everyday Pyrenean life without the tourist crowds.
