Itinerary description

First day of a fantastic ski tour from Lles (Spain) to the Andorran mountiain hut Refugi de l'Illa.

Our idea was to enter through the mountain pass of Port de Setut but due to the snow situation (1 meter of snow the previous 5 days) we opted for a safer option by heading a bit west towards Pic de Coma Extremera and then up to the ridge line to look for a way into Andorra. We had big luck and found a very nice, wide, safe and skiable colouir down into the open valley. 2018 is a big snow year but I would say this would be the recommended way in PLUS it gives a fun ski down!

Once in Andorra there are few complications, enjoy the long ski down into the valley and then the beautiful hike up to the amazing hut!
