A cathedral that overlooks Lleida is our starting point for a journey through vertiginous landscapes that offer us the best starry skies in Catalonia. We will also travel to the heart of the Pyrenees, where we will hike between glacier lakes, spectacular waterfalls and mountain towns, before discovering Romanesque architecture that is a World Heritage Site. We will enjoy cheeses and artisanal sausages and mountain recipes like the traditional Aranese olha served by a fireplace.
The magic of winter

Lleida is synonymous with skiing, and there are many options available to practice this sport in the province. The Vall de Boí has the Boí Taüll Resort, which boasts the highest-altitude ski area in the Pyrenees, and the Val d'Aran has the iconic Baqueira-Beret. But there are also more modest resorts where visitors can enjoy downhill skiing and cross-country skiing. The list is long and varied: Espot Esquí, Port Ainé, Tavascan, Port del Comte, Virós-Vallferrera, Aransa, Lles de Cerdanya, Sant Joan de l'Erm and Tuixent-la Vansa. Many of these areas also have options to focus on other snow sports, such as dog sledding or snow shoeing.
