Beautiful lake at the Ordino Arcalís resort. It's a shame the chairlift goes right over it.

A beautiful area in the Ordino-Arcalís sector. The ascent starts from the first parking lot on the road. If you're feeling adventurous, you can climb to the Pic de Peyreguils, where they installed the sundial (an iron structure that mountains don't really need). If you're not keen on hiking, you can take the chairlift, which operates between June and September, but arrive early as it gets very crowded.
