Aigüestortes and Estany de Sant Maurici National Park will host a World Bird Day interpretive walk on 3 October 2026, according to the listing for Parc Nacional d'Aigüestortes i Estany de Sant Maurici. The event is scheduled from 10am to 2pm and gives the park a specific nature programme during the first weekend of October.
World Bird Day walk scheduled at the national park
The activity appears in the October 2026 agenda of the Pallars Sobirà tourist office under the Catalan title Senderisme interpretatiu: DIA MUNDIAL DELS OCELLS. The same entry names the national park as the venue and gives 3 October 2026 as the date, with the programme running from 10am to 2pm.
The listing does not publish a route, meeting point, organiser, fee or booking instruction. It therefore confirms the date, subject and setting, but not a detailed itinerary. Visitors planning around the walk should check the latest park or local tourism information before travelling.
October 2026 activity listing places the bird-focused programme inside the protected landscape rather than merely in a nearby town.
Aigüestortes and Estany de Sant Maurici National Park is a water-rich landscape
The national park is Catalonia's only national park. Its high-mountain terrain contains close to 200 lakes and countless streams, with water forming the defining physical feature of the landscape.
That geography gives the World Bird Day programme a clear connection with the venue: the walk is scheduled in a mountain park whose lakes, streams and varied relief form the setting for its natural environment. The park has visitor contacts in Boí and Espot, linking the October programme with both the western and eastern sides of the protected area.
The park's official information identifies the House of the National Park in Boí at Ca de Simamet, C/ de les Graieres, 2. Its visitor information also identifies the park as a high-mountain area, so the 3 October programme should be approached as an outdoor activity rather than a museum visit.
official park information confirms the landscape, the national park's Catalan setting and the Boí contact address.
