Description

Among the charms of Spain, places like the wonderful National Park of Ordesa y Monte Perdido can get lost in the mix. With its glacial lakes, waterfalls, wildlife, and distinctive massifs, it’s little wonder that it was one of Europe’s earliest national parks. The National Park is part of the Pyrenees and Monte Perdido National Park which was declared a World Heritage site in 1997 by the UNESCO. Since 1977, a part of the park has also been inside the Ordesa-Viñamala Biosphere Reserve. Visiting the park in the Aragonese Pyrenees, you won’t be short of things to do in this mountain playground. The park centers around the towering massif of Monte Perdido at 3,355m, but there are hiking trails that run throughout the mountains to spots like Cola de Caballo Waterfall. A true highlight of visiting Ordesa y Monte Perdido is the chance to see the staggering beauty of the Arazas river flowing through the Ordesa Valley.
