About location

Les Escaldes is best known within Andorra for Caldea, the thermal spa complex built around the parish’s hot springs. Part of Escaldes-Engordany, it occupies the narrow Valira d’Orient valley beside the capital, where steep wooded slopes meet a compact urban centre. The town’s name refers to its warm mineral waters, used locally for centuries; Caldea, opened in 1994, gave that tradition a striking modern expression. Older stone houses in Engordany recall the former village, while the mountains of the parish extend into the Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage cultural landscape.

City les Escaldes

Les Escaldes occupies the floor of the Valira d’Orient valley in central Andorra, forming the urban core of Escaldes-Engordany beside Andorra la Vella. The town has long been associated with thermal water: its name refers to the hot springs that once supported washing and wool-working. Caldea, the large thermal spa complex, makes that tradition a visible part of the modern skyline. Above the built-up valley, the Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley extends through the parish; its high-mountain cultural landscape is listed by UNESCO. The Romanesque church of Sant Miquel d’Engolasters and nearby Lake Engolasters provide a quieter counterpoint to the commercial streets below.

Country Andorra

Among the countries of the eastern Pyrenees, Andorra stands out for its high mountain valleys and Catalan character. Set between France and Spain, this landlocked state is crossed by the Valira river system, whose valleys concentrate its towns, roads and much of everyday life. Catalan is the official language, and the capital, Andorra la Vella, brings together government, commerce and mountain access. In the east, the Madriu-Perafita-Claror Valley is inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List as a cultural landscape shaped over centuries by pastoral use. Winter sports are central to the national calendar, while hiking and cycling take over when the snow recedes.
