Living in Ransol, a beautiful and sunny valley in front of Grandvalira
Ransol is part of the set of small villages in front of El Tarter sector of Grandvalira. Located at 1,726 meters of altitude on the sunny side of the mountain, it had an estimated population, at the end of 2017, of 192 inhabitants, according to data from the Department of Statistics of the Government of Andorra.
The village is reached by the main road (CG-2) going towards France, taking the exit at the roundabout just before the El Tarter parking lot. From there, the Ransol road begins to gently gain height until it reaches the village in just over 500 meters. A sufficient height to get away from the main traffic of the CG-2, improve the views towards the main valley and towards Grandvalira and breathe a residential, calm and sunny climate at the foot of the new Valley of Ransol located after the village.
The church of Sant Jaume de Ransol welcomes us the beginning of the village; on the other side, along the next 100 meters of the street , there is a set of houses and residential flats. At this point the street is divided into two. A section goes to the neighboring village of Els Plans de Ransol, which is the only access road to that village, while on the other side the road runs uphill parallel to and in the opposite direction to the riverbed of the Coma river, crossing the beautiful and spectacular natural environment of the Ransol Valley without arriving at any other population centre. The road ends at a starting point of different routes and mountain excursions (the most outstanding culminates in the Serrera Summit) and in a provisioning and ideal place to spend unforgettable moments with family, friends or as a couple enjoying the mountain.
The great virtue of Ransol is that you can enjoy, without having to travel too far, the set of sports activities offered by Grandvalira in both summer and winter, while enjoying the tranquility of a village far from the central area and from the greater tourist activity. It should be noted that Grandvalira is the largest ski area in the Pyrenees and, in recent years, has expanded its recreational sports offer to make it more attractive in summer. Thus, it also has a famous high-altitude golf course and a go-kart circuit designed by Marc Gené.
The most featured sites in Ransol and the outskirts
- The church of Sant Jaume de Ransol, of pre-Roman origin, is a reconstruction made in 1963 from the original, which had to be demolished to give way to the new road. Before, in 1827, the church of Sant Jaume de Ransol was enlarged with the bell-gable bell tower and probably also with the confessional. The bell carries an inscription dedicated to the Saint. There was a painting on canvas of Sant Jaume, which is currently missing, that disappeared in 1962 during the reconstruction of the church. Every 25th of July, after the mass of the greater celebration, its protector continues to be invoked: the famous apostle Sant Jaume.
- For hiking and mountain excursions lovers, in Ransol there are different routes of varied levels of difficulty, in which to enjoy entertaining and natural walks through the valley. Among the most outstanding we can find the route to the “Estanys” dels Meners, to the Cabana Coms de Jan Refuge or to the Serrera Summit, reaching 2,913 meters of altitude.
- The road that runs along the bottom of the Ransol valley is also very popular within road bike enthusiasts. Althought it is not considered a mountain pass, its 4.5 km of distance, an average gradient of 6.2%, and the scarce traffic of vehicles that circulate through it make this road a good cycle route to stretch your legs and enjoy a beautiful walk through the mountain.
