A rec is an irrigation channel, and the Solà one runs halfway up the sunny side of Andorra la Vella, with an almost flat path beside it. It is the walk for someone in the city who wants an hour or two of mountains without climbing.
The route
The Comú rates it easy: 5.76 km from the Bonavista car park, about two and a quarter hours, with 90 metres of ascent and a maximum altitude of 1,115 metres. Visit Andorra starts it at the Sant Ermengol flats and gives it 5.13 km. It is part of the Anella Verda, the ring of paths around the city.
Other Anella Verda walks
On the other side of the valley, the Passeig del Rec de l'Obac is shorter: 3.34 km and an hour and a half, almost no climb, from the Serradells car park. And the path from Santa Coloma to La Margineda, 3.92 km, links the church of Santa Coloma with the medieval bridge at La Margineda.
In any month
It can be done all year; in winter, check for ice on the shaded stretches. Bring water. With a dog, on a lead.
