Winter in Alt Pirineu natural park

The Alt Pirineu natural park is the largest park in Catalonia.

The target zone of this article is close to Alòs d’Isil town. Once you reach the town, a gravel road goes through the park, passing close to Montgarri and finishing in Pla de Beret.

This area is still in good pristine conditions and you can find some interesting wildlife. In our few visits we have seen chamois, deer and fox as most remarkable animals.




The access to the park in winter can be challenging because of snow. Usually the road is full of snow and going there with a 2WD car can be difficult. We got there by 4WD and by snowmobile.
We planned the session to be inside the park early in the morning to take pictures of wildlife, but it was an unlucky day a no animals were present, so we spend time doing some landscape photography to the snowy environment.
