The Aragon region
Benasque is situated in the heart of the beautiful Posets Maladeta National Park in the Spanish Pyrenees. It is largely undiscovered by anyone other than the Spanish themselves.The summer and winter landscapes have captivated our family since we first discovered the Valle de Benasque in the early 1990's. Benasque with its unspoilt, picturesque buildings and narrow streets is an ideal centre for the independent traveller to use as a base for numerous activities such as walking, moutaineering, birdwatching, skiing and other mountain sports. The naturer reserve includes big forests of oaks and beeches with high mountain lakes, the last living glaciers of the Iberian peninsular, waterfalls, deep valleys and more than sixty summits above three thousand metres.
The ski resort of Cerler is 6 kilometres from Benasque, although many people prefer to stay in Benasque for the ambience and apres ski facilities. Skiing in Cerler has a very different feel from the well known resorts in the Alps. It is mainly the Spanish who ski here - there are no package tour companies in Cerler! The skiing areas are less crowded with virtually no queuing for lifts. It is an ideal resort for families, whether beginners or experienced skiers.
Benasque area
The area is renowned for the Somontana wines and within an hours drive down the valley, are many family owned bodegas that are open for tours and wine tastings.
