Estany de les Truites

Estany de les Truites is a high-altitude lake located in the Coma Pedrosa mountain area. Travelers visit this site primarily for hiking and to view the clear, calm waters of the lake within a mountain environment.

Getting There

The lake is located in the mountains near Andorra la Vella. Access requires traveling from the city center to the trailhead of the Coma Pedrosa area. Because this is a high-altitude location, the final approach is done on foot via hiking trails. The total travel time depends on the chosen trail and the hiker's pace, but allow several hours for the round trip from the city.

Duration of Visit

Once you reach the lake, allow 1 to 2 hours to rest and explore the immediate shoreline. If you intend to use the lake as a base for further trekking, allocate a full day.

When to Visit

The best time to visit is during the summer and early autumn when the trails are clear of snow. It is advisable to arrive in the morning to avoid afternoon mountain storms. This area is less crowded than the city center, though popular hiking weekends may see more visitors.

  • Pic dels Aspres: 0.5km
