Encamp Parish, Andorra
Encamp is one of the largest and most diverse parishes in Andorra, perfectly blending the charm of village life with the opportunities of a privileged natural setting. Traversed by the Valira d’Orient river and surrounded by mountains, it offers a landscape that invites both relaxation and adventure.
A gateway to Grandvalira
One of Encamp’s main attractions is the Funicamp, a funicular that links the town center directly with the Grandvalira ski slopes—the largest ski area in the Pyrenees. This fast and convenient connection makes Encamp an ideal winter destination for both families and seasoned skiers.
History and heritage everywhere
The parish preserves a rich architectural and cultural legacy. The complex of Sant Miquel de la Mosquera, the Romanesque church of Santa Eulàlia, and traditional mountain barns known as "bordes" are great examples. Moreover, the National Automobile Museum and other cultural venues make Encamp a place where history lives on every corner.
Nature and active living
When the snow melts, Encamp transforms into a paradise for hikers and nature lovers. Mountain trails, routes to lakes like the Pessons, and high-altitude shelters make it an ideal spot to explore the Andorran Pyrenees. The Ensagents valley and the area of les Pardines are especially admired for their beauty and accessibility.
Encamp is a parish with a personality of its own: active, welcoming, and full of contrasts. Whether you’re seeking adventure or prefer to relax in nature and heritage, here you’ll discover an authentic and lively Andorra.
