Walk
From a fantastic 6-7 night circular refuge circuit of the Senda de Camille, to breath-taking mountain summits or gentle strolls through beech forests, the Tranquil Valleys are a walker’s paradise.
The GR 11 crosses the region, as does a branch of the Camino de Santiago, while the route of the Holy Grail traces the journey that the holy relic is said to have followed in the 10th Century.
"Nine times out of ten, you’ll have the place to yourself"
There is plenty to do, from arduous ascents up distant peaks to easy wanders in meadows awash with flowers and buzzing with insects. And nine times out of ten, you’ll have the place to yourself.
Classic walks
Aguatuerta
A fairly accessible walk to a stunning hanging glacial valley with a spectacular meandering river. Not to be missed!
Bisaurin
The highest peak in the Tranquil Valleys (2.669m) has amazing views from the summit. It is a relatively easy non-technical climb up from the Lizara refuge.
Three Kings Table
The point where the three medieval kingdoms of Aragón Navarra and Béarn meet. On a clear day you can see all the way to the Bay of Biscay.
The Iguer circuit
An easy 5km walk up the beautiful Aisa Valley at the foot of impressive peaks.
La Senda de Camille
A 6-7 night, 120km circular refuge trail that crosses over from the Natural Park of the Western Valleys into the French National Park of the Pyrenees.
GR11
A high, long-distance path that crosses the length of the Pyrenees from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean. There are several stages within the Tranquil Valleys, while the GR 15 follows a similar route at a lower altitude going through several of our villages.
Holy Grail Trace
The Holy Grail is the cup that Jesus used at the Last Supper, a medieval Christian relic that arrived in Spain during the 3rd Century. For over a thousand years it was kept in these mountains in various different chapels, churches and monasteries.
Camino de Santiago
The most famous pilgrimage route in Europe has a variant that runs through the Tranquil Valleys, crossing the high mountains before dropping down into the bottom of the valley.
