Built around the old mountain route through the Valira d’Orient valley, Canillo grew into the administrative centre of Andorra’s largest parish. Set high in the eastern Pyrenees, it is closely associated with Grandvalira, the country’s principal ski domain, while summer brings walkers and cyclists to the surrounding mountain roads and trails. The Romanesque church of Sant Joan de Caselles, just south of the village, preserves a stone bell tower and medieval religious art. Canillo also leads towards the Sanctuary of Meritxell, Andorra’s national shrine. Browse other webcams across Andorra to place this Pyrenean setting in a wider geographic context.
