Aragon
Home to the Pyrenees
Aragon bordering on France with the Pyrenees, is of particular interest for its outstanding mountainous landscapes, with glacier lakes and several natural preserves where you still may observe animals which have been extinct in many other regions of Europe long ago. In total contrast is the plain Ebro valley, which is limited by the mountain range Moncayo, in the east.
Skiing and other winter sports in the Pyrenees are extremely popular - trekking, hiking and walking in many parts; adventure sports, from climbing to canyoning and hang gliding to rafting; hunting and fishing throughout the region; horseriding; birdwatching and other forms of nature observation.
