Andorra is in the heart of the Pyrenees, and though it doesn´t have beaches, its other jewels make it a very popular tourist destination. Here you have the high mountain, snow, valleys and rivers, etc. Andorra is divided into three valleys that form a Y in the Principality, and the Valira and Gran Valira River, are the main rivers of this country.

In Escaldes/Engordany, you will find some of the most beautiful spots in all of Andorra, especially in the Mandriu Valley, that has over 4300 hectars of vegetation, rivers, ravines, flora and fauna.
