Loop of mountains & villages

After a good breakfast, it's time for the first day of hiking, starting directly from your accommodation.

    • Time: 3h30 (excl. breaks)

    • Altimeters: 510 m
    • Time: 3h30 (excl. breaks)

Aigüeta de Barbaruens

This route starts from the village of Barbaruens. The surrounding nature is dense, rugged and spectacular. Narrow ravines, deep gorges and rugged mountain slopes form the backdrop to this hike.

The hike starts with a short descent to the Barbaruens canyon, after which you climb up along a nice path to the Virgen de la Peñan chapel. This is the highest point of the route, and the panoramic views of the Cotiella massif, the Sierra de Chía and the Circo de Armeña are magnificent. From the chapel you descend via a different route through the Circo de Armeña back to Barbaruens.

Llanos de Hospital & Aigualluts

The hike from Llanos de Hospital to the Aigualluts waterfall is an absolute must during this hiking holidays.

The landscape of the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park is nothing short of enchanting: you'll traverse to the 'end' of the valley amidst the highest peaks of the Pyrenees, catching glimpses of the last remnants of glaciers.

Your journey begins at the Llanos de Hospital parking, where a mountain trail leads you to the mountain lakes of Villamuerta. From there, the path continues to the Forau de Aigualluts. Here, the meltwater from the Aneto glacier cascades down the Aigualluts waterfall, into a hole that's 70 meters wide and 40 meters deep, disappearing into an underground river.

Heerlijk gegeten in restaurant Chill-Outdoor. Veel lekkere vegetarische opties en heel leuk personeel!
CONCHI BAEZ MELERO
Una experiencia fantástica. Éramos un grupo de 15 personas y nos atendieron con una amabilidad increíble. Tanto el chico como la chica que nos sirvieron fueron encantadores. El menú estaba riquísimo, el espacio es de 10 y, para rematar, nos recomendaron un lugar de baño en el río que fue espectacular. Sin duda, cuando volvamos a la zona repetiremos.
Luisa Martinez
Super recomendable, servicio genial y muchas opciones sin gluten para celíacos. Hemos venido varios días que nos hemos alejado por la zona.

Claudio Creis Cavero
Sitio tranquilo con sabores originales. Fuera corre el viento y se está muy agusto. El camarero Holandés muy simpático y camarera Julieta muy educada.

Would definitely recommend to a friend.

Heel fijn om in dit restaurant te eten. In tegenstelling tot veel Spaanse restaurants, heb ik op deze plek, als vegetarisch/ vegan georiënteerde bezoeker ook veel te kiezen. Heerlijk! Een plek waar duurzaamheid, gezelligheid en kwaliteit mooi samen komen. Super aanrader.
