What to do in Huesca

Located just an hour away from the Pyrenees, Huesca is located in a privileged location surrounded by nature and exquisite panoramas. The province borders with France, Lerida and Zaragoza and has some of the most interesting landscapes of Spain.

In 2015, the city was voted as ‘the most charming city in Spain’. Every year, mountaineers travel to unveil the mysterious pathways of the Aragonese Pyrenees, which lead to the top of the Monte Perdido Mountain (3.355m). Trekkers can roam around the valleys of Ordesa, Pineta, Añisclo y Escuaín.

During winter the mountains are the perfect spot for backcountry skiing, with over 10 ski resorts to choose from and try out the challenging off-piste slopes.

Another interesting place in the area is Posets-Maladeta National Park, known for housing the largest number of mountain peaks that go over the 3,000m. Thousands of alpinists and ice climbers flock each year to try and reach the highest peaks!

During the summer, mountain bikers try the downhill tracks of the mountains. Rafting and canyoning enthusiasts can discover the numerous river and lake channels that surround the area. The region boasts over 95 lakes of glacier origins, all of which have different characteristics and features.
