Spanish Pyrenees Hike ~ Huesca (Region) Huesca has a rich cultural and natural heritage that attracts thousands of tourists every year. A few kilometers from the capital is the Guara Canyons Natural Park (Cañones de Guara), a natural area suitable for outdoor sports such as canyoning. The Aragonese Pyrenees offer countless tourist attractions. Their most characteristic landscapes are those formed by mountain peaks and green valleys, such as those of Ansó, Hecho and Tena, the latter of which has been declared a Biosphere Reserve. The Ordesa and Monte Perdido National Park is one of the most important protected areas in the Pyrenees for its fauna and high ecological value. Therefore, Monte Perdido was declared a World Heritage Site. At the foot of the mountain is Bielsa’s Parador Hotel, a cozy mountain sanctuary on the banks of the River Cinca. The highest peaks of the Pyrenees and the southernmost glacier in continental Europe are located in the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park and Pico de Aneto (3,404 m). The Aragon Way is a branch of the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela that passes through Huesca. From France, the trail crosses the summit of Mount Somport (1,632 meters) into Spain. After leaving Candanchú and Canfranc, we arrive in Jaca. The most striking feature here is the castle, a fortress built in the 12th century. In the historic medieval center, you can admire the castle, built in the 16th century on the orders of Felipe II, and the Cathedral of San Pedro, declared a National Monument. The route continues across the Queen Jaca Bridge and Belduán until entering Navarre. #AprilDestinations2025 #SpainTravel #Aragon
