Beautiful park, amazing sceneries, even taxi service, lots of spring water spots so you can refill your water bottle.

We really enjoyed our day out at Aigüestortes and Estany de Sant Maurici. We got to the parking lot at the trailhead by 9am, as suggested by the tourist office, because the lot fills up and then you can't drive up. (If this happens you have 3 choices: 1. Wait until someone leaves the lot, usually around 2:30pm, 2. Park in Espot and walk up for about 90 mins. Or 3. Take a Jeep Taxi from Espot.) We hiked up to the lake pretty easily with 3 kids and a baby on our back. The first part of the hike is flat and designed for those with mobility issues. The walkway even included turnouts for those in wheelchairs. After the waterfall the path changes to a bit of up hill and then along the valley floor, then to winding amongst the trees. It was nicely shaded and you can hear the running water most of the way. The lake was lovely with amazing views and there is a natural spring with delicious, fresh water. There were quite a few people there and we never went more than 50 feet without running into other hikers. (Higher amount of visitors because of COVID.) We walked up to the Cascada de la Ratera, both the bottom portion and the top portion. It took about 30 mins. We continued our walk to the Ratera Lake, which was nice, and had some pretty views and places to rest. The kids enjoyed putting their feet in the water on the side of the path. Overall, with about 5 breaks for snacks, we took 7.5 hours from parking lot to Lake Ratera and back. It has a good amount of incline, but kids can do it and adults who are in ok shape can too.
Amazing park, beautiful views!! Perfect for hiking with family and also to chill around the lake! You can take a taxi from the town for around 6 euros each or just walk from there as you can not go untill the top by your own car. You should definitely visit!
Super underrated park. Some of the most beautiful hikes I've ever done.
In love with this place
