Depart from Barcelona

On the way to the Pyrenees, stop by the medieval town of Vic, known for its busy market and old quarter. Listen to a short introduction about the town's history from your guide at the Market Square before exploring the town at your own leisure.

Before boarding the train, briefly visit Queralbs, the last vehicle-accessible village with an altitude of 1,236 meters. See the Church of Sant Sadurni de Fustanya which, according to legend, was built by fairies.

Take the rack railway up to an altitude of 1,964 meters to reach the mountain valley of Vall de Nuria. Arrive at the valley and admire the view of rolling hills, green fields, and stunning reservoir.

If you enjoy hiking, see the types of routes ranging from hard and strenuous to light and easy. Enjoy the stunning views from above and get to experience the solitude of the mountains.
