As guests arrive in this remote region they are immediately absorbed by the scenery and landscape which in grand style commands the view as far as is physically possible to see. Just as you begin to conceive the geography and environment you realise that this is a place of contradiction, a private world that is home to everything pure and untamed. A place that encourages exploration, education whilst all the while delivering bountiful excitement. Here you set the agenda no one else. Some happily bask in the pleasant sunshine, reading a book and sipping a sweet full bodied red from one of the many local vineyards, whilst others take to the hills in a concentrated effort to see the land from

the opposing angle, above. Depending on your experience and fitness the local ranges offer a climb for all. Along the way you can feel free to stop and appreciate the rare foliage that adorns the road sides or cast an eye above to gaze in awe at a wild bird of prey sweeping and soaring against a clear blue backdrop. Here groups actively congregate to enjoy all the mountains have to offer before finally taking a well earned evenings rest in a local hostelry where the local cuisine is well received and washed down with lots of palatable wine.

In addition to the trekking and climbing the region is famed for outdoor pursuits including water sports, swimming, fishing and diving.

A natural hive of activity for those inclined. However to return to those who prefer the quieter experience, Sobrarbe has bags to offer on the heritage and culture front. As with any famed region it is entrenched in a divided and colourful past. One that has witnessed wars, battles and religious indifference, one which sees a uniqueness form between two countries and their respective traditions. Here the streets and architecture tell a story like no other, the people are full of tales and fun and go far in bonding with all who visit. In the small towns beautiful costumes, dancing and songs regale to the delight of all who witness.
