Andorra and the Pyrenean valleys
Ten days from Andorra la Vella and Escaldes through Ordino pine hush and Sorteny nature reserve light, Canillo and Meritxell sanctuary hush, Soldeu ridge belvederes and Pas de la Casa high-pass air, Engolasters lake mirror and Encamp valley colour, then a soft Spanish side to La Seu d Urgell cathedral stone and optional Font-Romeu / Puigcerda edge before a return to the capital valleys. FEDA, hotel wallbox and nearby Ionity or public DC on Spanish and French approaches where present; high-valley coverage is thinner — cool battery, daylight mountain legs, unhurried Pyrenean valley rhythm.
Season: Best May to June and September to October. Winter snow and summer storm cells can close high shoulders; book overnight FEDA or hotel wallbox in Andorra la Vella, Ordino and Encamp when you can. Charge before Ordino / Sorteny and Pas de la Casa hops — cool battery, daylight departure; high-valley coverage is thinner. On Spanish and French approaches, use nearby Ionity or public DC when the schedule allows.
