Pyrenees

Pla de Beret – Montgarri


Located at almost 1,900 metres, and the site of the Baqueira-Beret ski resort, the beautiful broad Beret plain is one of the most accessible parts of the Val d’Aran. From the ski station an easy, flat route (on foot or by mountain bike) follows the River Noguera Pallaresa through pastures, high mountain meadows and mountain pine forests to the historic sanctuary of Montgarri. Birds typical of the high Pyrenean mountains can be observed in the diverse habitats along the route.

WATCHING

EXPERIENCES

There are many travel agencies, companies, organisations and professional guides in the Ebre-Secans-Pirineus corridor who have in-depth knowledge of the region and the bird species that can be observed and photographed

We advise you to take advantage of the services they offer to enjoy truly memorable birding experiences.

Buseu Project

This initiative is based in an abandoned village that has now been restored for ecotourism, with photographers’ hides, photography courses and workshops and a rural home offering tourist accommodation (Casa Felip). The hides overlook a feeding station, allowing photographers to capture spectacular images of golden eagles, bearded vultures and other scavengers.
