Among Andorra’s high Pyrenean settlements, les Bordes d’Envalira stands out for its position in the upper Envalira valley, near the French border. The Riu d’Envalira follows this mountain corridor, while the surrounding slopes place the hamlet within the Grandvalira ski area. It belongs to the parish of Encamp, one of Andorra’s seven parishes. Its name refers to bordes, traditional Andorran rural buildings once used for farming and storage, recalling the valley’s agricultural past before winter sports became central to the local economy. In summer, this high-country setting also draws walkers and cyclists into the Pyrenees.
