The fastest animal on Earth, the biggest owl of the world, the most aggressive bird of the Catalonian woods… it is a unique experience when they fly just above you, when the barn owl musses your hair with its soft wings. You will meet 50 different species of native animals. During the exhibition you can touch them, help to train them and even feed some of them! All this amazing experiences take place in a tranquil atmosphere, where the values of respect to the nature and the animals are taught. The location of the Zoo of the Pyrenees is in one of the most privileged places of Europe! In the middle of a European protected area, you can observe wild vultures, falcons and eagles that live in harmony with humans. The view of the landscape will leave you breathless: in one glance you can oversee a third part of whole Catalonia and enjoy an almost unknown world: the wildlife of the Pyrenees.

As it passes through the Mont-rebei gorge, the Noguera Ribagorcana rivers runs through the dephts of a canyon that reaches heights of 500 metres, with a span that narrows at points to less than 20 metres. It is the country's last great gorge that remains in a nearly pristine state but that is also easily accessible to visitors. It is crossed only by a bridle path that has been cut into the rock, allowing visitors to enjoy the spectacular scenery.
August 2020 Amazing day hiking in Mont Rebei! Couple of things to note that we wished we had known before: Take lots of water, food, some goggles and solid trainers to hike in. Maybe even some water shoes if you want to dive in from the cliffs or bridges. And loo roll if you need to go! The website for booking the parking at Masieta was down and didn’t work, and the email address doesn’t get a response and they don’t speak very good English if you manage to get through by phone. So we decided to just wing it and drive there to see what the situation was. Instantly we were told we needed an online booking voucher and that the car park was full. If the car park is full, don’t worry, you can drive a bit further up the road and just leave your car tucked out of the way on the side, everyone seems to do this as the car park is so small. We did this, and ended up saving the money it costs to park, win win! You then just enter the park through the car park and there’s a small shop at the entrance to buy snacks and more water and a toilet (the only toilet there is, otherwise you have to pee in the nature!) We decided to take the most popular path all the way to the suspension bridge which took about 2hours with stops along the way. We stopped for lunch At a point just beyond the suspension bridge, then carried on about another hour to climb the famous Monfalco stairs (basically some wooden stairs bolted to the face of a cliff, not for the faint hearted!!) We went down there, and then up again. We then started to slowly head back and stopped for a couple of swims as it was really hot and we had run out of water! Manage to get some water at the shop at the entrance as we left though. We spent about 5-6 hours there overall and it was beautiful. Tomorrow, we are going back, but to the Corca car park where we’ve booked Kayaks, as we want to experience the Gorge from down below. Zenith Aventura is who we booked through, and we opted for a twilight session from 4pm (50 euros for a double kayak until 9pm) You can pay to rent kayaks when you are in the park so that you only have to walk one way, but we’ve decided to just go back another day rather than combine everything into one.

The ski resort Baqueira/Beret is located in Val d’Aran (Spain, Catalonia, Lleida). For skiing and snowboarding, there are 156 km of slopes and 5.5 km of ski routes available. 28 lifts transport the guests. The winter sports area is situated between the elevations of 1,471 and 2,510 m. The Baqueira Beret ski resort is one of the most well-known in Spain. It is also one of the largest and best ski resorts in the Pyrenees. It stretches across Baqueira, Beret and Bonaigua. The slopes at Bequeira Beret are mainly accessed with modern chairlifts. Due to the snow-reliable location, the ski season usually begins in November and goes until the end of April. Ski holiday accommodations are found in the village of Baqueira.
A fabulous ski resort with something for all levels. Beret is our favourite! Great wide slopes for beginners, plenty of blues and reds for more experienced skiers. Friendly staff and minimal queues.

It was 40 degrees C today but it didn't stop us making our way up the hill using the elevator accessed off main street. We even climbed the 238 stairs for superb views over Lleida from the top of the bell tower. The cathedral itself is a fascinating place. Still standing and looking good but the ravages of so many wars, battles and misuse have made there mark. Part of the fascination of the place though.

The route to this zoo is very well indicated and the climb to it is spectacular, a road mountain stage of the Tour and La Vuelta with wonderful views and with reminders in the revolts of the Spanish cyclists who have won some Tour Parking is large but it is convenient to arrive early because it gets crowded The wonderful thing about this zoo is that its animals are those that are in their environment, animals of the Pyrenees, no lions and kangaroos, there are bears, wolves, deer, fallow deer, bearded vultures, fauna of the area with the natural vegetation of the area , no artificial wetlands The animals are in semi-freedom, you walk among them on marked trails, only the most dangerous bears and wolves have some protection such as pits or lines of high voltage cables So much so that my wife was accidentally pecked by a griffon vulture, they can appear at any time and my daughter was able to feed the marmots with her hand At the end of the tour there is an interesting very educational museum of the fauna and flora of the Pyrenees as well as these were formed through the decades
