Off The Beaten Path  

The hidden Valle de Gistain

The hidden Valle de Gistain, Bielsa

 duncanlbrown Says:  Driving up this valley, you think you are going to get to a dead end any minute. But suddenly you appear in a beautiful green open space. Lunch at San Juan de Plan - there are 3 or 4 places all serving great food. Go up to the top at Gistain - the men of this village once... 

Camino de Ermitas

Camino de Ermitas, Bielsa

 duncanlbrown Says:  The Hermitage trail - starts from Tella, is about 30 mins of walking on good paths around a series of Ermitas - litttle chapels on the hillside. Very good views, interesting visitors' books and a very pleasant stroll to wind down if you've just been up the high Pyrenees. 

Tella - another gem of a village

Tella - another gem of a village, Bielsa

 duncanlbrown Says:  Tella is another village up in the Pyrenees - turn off the road between Ainsa and Bielsa at the "Dolmen de Tella" sign and follow it up the tortuous mountain road. The dolmen itself is a bit disappointing, if you've seen dolmens in Brittany or Cornwall you might even miss...

Better in the centre than it looks from outside

 Bielsa doesn't look too hot from the main road, but park up next to the swimming pool and explore - it's a lot better inside. Plenty restaurants, cafes and bars, nice church, square etc. But the best...

Beautiful Bielsa in the Mid-Pyrenees, Huesca

 If you're ever close to this area, you must not miss out on the amazing landscape. Scarily high mountains, cascading watefalls, fast-flowing rivers, crystal clear lakes and the quaint town of Bielsa...
