Llivia is an exclave town in Catalonia, Spain, surrounded by France on all sides.
In 1659, the Spaniards ceded all villages north of the Pyrenees mountains to the French in the Treaty of the Pyrenees. However, Llivia has the legal status of being a town, not a village, because it was an ancient capital of Cerdanya and thus it remains as Spanish territory. This quirk meant that Llivia is cut off from the rest of mainland Spain.
From the west, in mainland Spain. Head to Alp, take N260 highway north towards Puigcerdà. Then continue northwest along Highways N152 and N154. N154 will temporarily change to D68 for about 1.6 km as it passes through French territory before changing back to N154 in Llivia. It is interesting to note that the D68 road is considered to be "neutral" to both countries.
From the east, drive to Estavar and continue west to enter Olivia.
Take Alsa bus from Puigcerdà.
