Declared as the first hunting preserve in 1987, this area is home to fauna of exceedingly high value, such as the largest population of chamois in the Principality, both in extension and in number of specimens.

When on route it is essential to look towards the sky every so often, given that this route is one of the best areas in Andorra for observing large birds of prey.

The starting point is in the town of Margineda, on the Santa Coloma cobblestone path (42º 29' 12.123", 1º 29' 27.8946")

The return route will pass through the Sispony pens, where you can enjoy the agricultural landscapes and the good preservation of its farm buildings. Take the Rec del Solà path to enjoy its unique views over the capital’s urban centre to end the route.

For your safety, we recommend you do the routes at altitudes of over 1,700 metres between the end of June and the end of September. However, if the weather and terrain conditions allow it, the season may extend from May to October.

You will find further details of this and other routes in the Hiking guide Trails of Andorra.
