Dónde: La Pobla de Segur

The Tren dels Llacs is usually done as a round trip in a day, but its ticket lets you come back on a regular train within six days. With that, a night in La Pobla de Segur turns the excursion into a car-free mountain weekend: Saturday is for the train and the town, Sunday for the rock or the river.

## Where to sleep

The Hotel Solé is on Avenida de l'Estació, a few steps from the platform: it opened in 1951, the year the train arrived, has its own restaurant and a pool in summer. If you prefer the old town, the Fonda Can Fasèrsia, on Carrer Major, is a traditional inn with a Catalan-cuisine dining room. Neither publishes prices: ask when booking.

## Ferrata or river

The Roca Foradada ferrata climbs the pierced crag you see from the village and mixes easy stretches with K5 sections: with a guide, absolutely, if you have no experience. It is closed from 15 December to 1 April. The rafting and canyoning at Collegats only run in July and August, Monday to Saturday: in summer, do the river on Saturday afternoon or choose a ferrata Sunday.

## With children

The train suits ages four or five and up. The ferrata is not for small children; the rafting, from age 8 according to the company. With kids, Sunday can be just the walk and the Espai Raier, which in summer opens in the morning opposite the station.

## Un consejo más

### Buy Sunday's activity first
If you want the ferrata with a guide, book it first with Collegats Outdoor and then buy the train.

## Cuándo no ir

### A rafting Sunday
Collegats Outdoor does not work on Sundays. If you want the river, change the order: rafting on Saturday afternoon, if they give you a time, or a two-night trip.
