Bargain hunt

Festival Enjoy Andorra's colourful National Festival of Mare de Deu Meritxel in early September, in honour of the Virgin of Meritxell. Hiking Hike in the mountains amongst tumbling rivers, far-reaching lakes and pretty countryside. Easier strolls include the Camí Ral d'Ordino in the La Cortinada parish, and Camí de les Pardines in Encamp. Skiing Go skiing (www.skiandorra.ad) at one of Andorra's many resorts; the main centre is Soldeu (www.soldeuonline.com).

Try cross-country skiing in the resort of La Rabassa. Watch a game Andorra is bursting with popular spectator sports.
