National park taxi from the plaça del Treio in Boí · About 30 min · All year weather permitting · €15 adult

The Aigüestortes i Estany de Sant Maurici National Park does not allow private cars up to the Planell d'Aigüestortes. From Boí you go up in the 4x4s of the Associació de Taxis de la Vall de Boí, which leave from the plaça del Treio, next to the church of Sant Joan and the Casa del Parc. It is about 30 minutes of track to the Planell information hut.
How it works in the plaça del Treio
There is no booking: you arrive at the square and hire the taxi right there. The service runs all year as long as the weather allows, generally from 9:00 to 18:00, with hours adjusted to each season. In winter it is shorter and there are days when no vehicle goes, so the day before call 629 205 489 to find out whether they are going up and what time the last return is.
Neither the association nor the valley's tourist office publishes the fares as text. The only one we have found in writing is the one Rutes Pirineus quotes for its snowshoe outings: €15 for adults, €13 for retired people and €9.50 for children, paid to the driver. Confirm it when you go up, especially if you are in a group.
The Planell and the flat path to the estany Llong
The Planell is the plain of meanders that gives the park its name. From there, the path to the estany Llong, at about 2,000 metres, is practically flat until the last stretch before the refuge and the lake. Those who continue towards the estany Redó or the Portarró d'Espot, the pass that goes down to Sant Maurici, are already on a mountain route.
In winter all of this is under snow. Without snowshoes, do not leave the track; with them, check the ICGC avalanche bulletin first or go up with a guide, as on the snowshoe outing to the estany Llong, which uses this same taxi.
Without a taxi: the Palanca de la Molina
If you prefer to walk up, leave the car in the Palanca de la Molina car park, on the L-500, about 2 km before Caldes; if it is full, in the Farga one, beside the road, which admits motorhomes. From the Palanca, the camí dels Enamorats climbs in about 20 minutes to the upper car park, and from there the Llúdriga route reaches Aigüestortes in about two and a half hours each way. With snow, that climb is a different excursion.
