To travel from Ordino to Canillo we like to take this Coll d'Ordino road, we have been there several times in several years enjoying the route, in a natural environment with its landscapes. Get to the highest point of the Coll, enjoy the views, in this place there is a paraban or half a circular table with a plane to be able to distinguish the tops of the mountains that we have in front of our eyes. Then continue descending to Canillo with a stop at the Roc del Quer included.
