Shuttle to the Pradera · €6 return · free car park

On the busiest days, private cars cannot go up from Torla to the Pradera de Ordesa: you park in Torla and take the shuttle bus. The Torla-Ordesa car park is next to the National Park Visitor Centre, is free all year, and the bus leaves from and returns to it. Overnight stays in the car park are not allowed.
2026 dates and timetables
The bus runs at Easter, from 1 to 6 April; over the May bank-holiday weekend, from 1 to 3 May; in summer, from 19 June to 20 September; and in autumn on weekends and bank-holiday weekends from 25 to 27 September, 2 to 18 October, 23 to 25 October and 30 October to 2 November. The company warns that it may add dates depending on expected visitor numbers.
The first bus up is at 6:00 until September and at 7:00 in October and November. The last bus up from Torla is at 19:00 in July and August, at 18:00 at Easter, in May, in September and the first half of October, and at 17:00 on the last October and November bank-holiday weekends. The last bus down from the Pradera runs between 20:00 and 22:00 depending on the period; check it at ordesabus.com before setting off and don't cut it fine for the last bus. Buses leave every 15 or 20 minutes, and between 6:00 and 8:00, every half hour.
Tickets and prices
The return ticket costs €6 for adults and €5 for over-65s and people with disabilities, with documentation. Children under 10 travel free on showing their ID. Single, €4 and €3.50. Tickets cannot be reserved: they are open and valid for any day and time. They are sold at the car park ticket office and at some accommodation in Torla; the ticket down is also sold at the restaurant in the Pradera, in cash only. It is worth buying it beforehand to avoid queuing at the ticket office, which is open from 5:45 to 21:30 in summer, from 5:45 to 20:15 at Easter, in September and at the Pilar, and from 6:45 to 20:00 in October and November.
With a dog
Dogs travel in the bus hold, in carriers, and pay €2 return or €1 one way; only guide dogs travel with their passenger. They board only at the Torla car park, and those of potentially dangerous breeds must wear a muzzle and a short lead. The number of dogs per trip depends on the carriers available, and inside the National Park they may not run loose.
Capacity and alternatives
The Ordesa valley admits a maximum of 1,800 people at a time. When that figure is reached the buses up are suspended, and having a ticket does not guarantee a place in that case: arrive early in August and on bank-holiday weekends. Outside the bus dates, access to the Pradera by car is free; on some weekends when the Pradera car park fills up, the company refers people to the Torla taxi, on 630 418 918.
From the Pradera start the routes to the Cola de Caballo by the Gradas de Soaso, the Estrecho and Arripas waterfalls and the Faja de Pelay. For a meal on the way down, El Duende is in Torla, a step from the bus.
