Naturlandia Adventure Park
Andorra's premier adventure park offering the world's longest toboggan run (5.3 km), zip lines, animal park, off-road circuits, and winter snow activities. Set in pristine forest at 2,000 meters elevation, it combines adventure sports with nature education for all ages.
Naturlandia is Andorra's flagship outdoor adventure park, set within a protected pine forest at around 2,000 metres elevation in the commune of Sant Julià de Lòria, in the southern reaches of the country. The park's centrepiece is the Tobotronc, billed as one of the world's longest alpine coasters, a winding track of 5.3 kilometres that descends through the forest on a purpose-built metal rail. Riders sit in individual carts with independently controlled brakes, reaching speeds of up to 40 kilometres per hour on the steeper sections while allowing both the thrill-seeking and the cautious to set their own pace.
Beyond the Tobotronc, the park operates a broad range of activities across different seasons. The animal park features species typical of the Pyrenean highlands — Pyrenean chamois, deer, Barbary macaques, wolves, and various raptors — in naturalistic enclosures within the forest, providing an educational counterpoint to the adventure activities. Zip lines, tree-top adventure circuits, off-road electric buggy tracks, and archery ranges add to the programme. In winter, snow activities including sledging, snowshoe routes, and guided snowcat excursions operate from the same site.
Access to the park from Sant Julià de Lòria is by cable car (telecabina), which rises steeply through the forest from the valley floor to the park entrance. The cable car journey offers aerial views across the southern Andorran valleys toward Spain. The drive up by road is also possible for those arriving by private vehicle.
Visitors typically spend three to four hours exploring the park at a relaxed pace. Families with young children tend to focus on the animal park and the gentler adventure activities, while older children and adults can fill a full day combining the Tobotronc with multiple adventure circuits. Combination tickets covering the cable car, Tobotronc, and animal park offer the best value.
Some activities are seasonal; checking the programme on the park's official website before visiting avoids disappointment. A café and restaurant at the park serve lunch and snacks.

FAQ
How long does a visit to Naturlandia take?
Most families spend three to four hours. Those planning to ride the Tobotronc multiple times, explore the animal park thoroughly, and try additional adventure activities should allow a full day. Cable car travel time to and from the valley adds around 20 minutes.
Is Naturlandia worth visiting for children?
Yes — the park is designed with families in mind. The animal park is included in the main ticket and appeals strongly to young children, while the Tobotronc and adventure circuits suit older children and teenagers. Height and age restrictions apply to some activities; details are available on the park's website.
How do visitors get to Naturlandia?
The most convenient approach is the cable car (telecabina) departing from Sant Julià de Lòria in southern Andorra. Driving directly to the park by the mountain road is also possible. The journey from Andorra la Vella takes approximately 20 minutes by car.
Accessibility
The cable car from Sant Julià de Lòria can accommodate wheelchair users with staff assistance. Once in the park, terrain consists largely of natural forest paths that are uneven and may be wet. The animal park viewing areas are partially accessible by path, but the Tobotronc and tree-top circuits require physical agility and are not adapted for wheelchair users.
When to visit
Late May, June, and September offer good weather and shorter queues than the peak July–August period. Arriving at opening time (10:00) on summer days avoids the longest waits for the Tobotronc. Weekday visits are markedly quieter than weekends throughout the season.
