The Most Unique Experiences to Have in Andorra
Skiing, hiking and shopping are the three most obvious things to do in Andorra – however, this small country offers a lot more than you’d expect. Here are our top unique experiences to have in Andorra, from sliding down mountains and sleeping in a shepherd’s hut to visiting quirky museums.
Stay overnight in a shepherd’s hut
It’s all very well staying in hotels, self-catering apartments or mountain chalets, but if you truly want to experience something different in Andorra, why not book a shepherd’s hut for the night? Scattered across Andorra’s Natural Parks are around 30 mountain huts, where visitors can spend the night, far away from civilisation and the hum-drum of city life. It might be the perfect spot from which to spot some of Andorra’s wildlife, from golden eagles to wild boar.
1. Slide down the world's longest toboggan run
Forest, Park
You may be surprised to learn that Andorra is actually home to the longest toboggan run in the world: Tobotronc, located in the Naturlandia eco-adventure park. It is 5.3 km long and drops a total of 400 metres, so you’ll be zipping down the mountain for over ten minutes. Taking visitors whizzing through the La Rabassa Forest, it also offers spectacular mountain views.

5. Walk the largest sky trail in Europe
Park
Take to the skies by walking Europe’s largest sky trail – a series of wooden bridges, ropes and ladders, surrounded by forests and mountains. Known as Airtrekk, it’s also located in the Naturlandia eco-adventure park and is set 13.5 metres off the ground. There are over 54 challenges to complete the course and three varying levels of difficulty.

Try your hand at archery
Andorra is actually a great place to try archery, as there are many places you can practice throughout the country. Some of the best places are the Vallnord Ski Resort or the Mont Magic in Canillo. With excellent facilities and knowledgeable instructors, we’ll bet you’ll be striking the bull’s eye in no time.
