Tourism in the Valley of the Aragon

The river Aragón has been witness for thousands of years of the doings of men in a region wich was a land of conquest, a walk for pilgrims in the Road of Santiago and an essential route of cammunications between France and Spain. Art, gastronomy and natural sceneries wich deserve our detailed visit.

 TODAY WE VISIT

Canfranc
In the 11th century, right next to the road to France, Canfranc was born as a perfect example of border village. In the middle of a deep valley, with scarce agricultural resources, its inhabitants had to turn to commerce, basing their income on the transactions they made between Aragón and the French Bearn, and on the lodging they could offer to pilgrims and travelers.
