Chairlift Creussans
It's one of the nerve centers of Ordino Arcalís and the axis of different hiking routes. On one hand, the excursion to the Creussans Lake allows you to discover one of the most emblematic landscapes of this corner of Andorra. On the other hand, you can enjoy the ski lift in winter in a completely different environment, where the snow will become the perfect setting for your skiing days.
What is the Creussans chairlift?
This chairlift offers easy access and has a vertical drop of about 220 meters. The route starts at the end of the Arcalís road, at an altitude of 2,220 meters, and follows the path along the river until reaching the lake.
With the Creussans chairlift, you'll also get very close to the peak of Peyreguils, where the Tristaina Solar Viewpoint is located. With a length of 1,060 meters, the journey on the ski lift takes between 15 and 20 minutes. It offers a spectacular view that will leave you amazed.

Verdaguer trail
Another great hike is the Verdaguer Trail, named after the Catalan poet Jacint Verdaguer.
On 25 August 1883, Verdaguer entered Andorra over this mountain pass after days of walking in the Catalan Pyrenees. At the time, the poet was conducting a study of the landscapes, folklore and legends of the Pyrenees, which he used as inspiration of some of his best loved verse.
Here, the trail starts at the top of the Creussans chairlift and then goes downhill. A number of information panels mark the path, which ends in the village of La Cortinada. It has a total descent of 1,335 metres and there are various points of interest along the route, such as the Church of Sant Pere del Serrat and the Llorts Mine.
