This part of the Pyrenees is noted for its pure air and the clear waters of its streams and rivers.

From some of the comfortable bedrooms there are beautiful views of this mountain scenery.

The Parador is built to the traditional architecture of the area in local stone.

Inside there is much use of wood to cover the floors, walls and columns. The furniture is modern in design and finished in luxurious leather.

Like all the hotels in the Spanish Paradores group, the restaurant maintains the high standards and serves the best of the dishes popular in the Northern part of Aragon. Parador de Bielsa

Particularly tasty are the:
"Trucha del Cinca a lo fine" which is trout from the local Cinca river cooked a lo fino;
"Pierna de jabali" being roast leg of wild boar;
"Teresicas de Aragon" which is a local dessert made with puff pastry;

Whilst staying here you should enjoy this National Park which was established in 1918 and later extended. The highest point is Monte Perdido which is climbs to about 10,000 feet.

If you are lucky (or perhaps unlucky!) you well meet a brown bear in the remoter parts of the mountains. This is one of the 10 species most at threat in Europe. For much of the year it hibernates and for the other months it leads a lonely (almost) existance eating everything in reach, nuts, fruit, fish, insects etc. The animals do not attack if not provoked and have a well deserved fear of humans.

The festival of the local saint takes place on August 15th whilst there is another of these typical Aragon festivities on the 10th of August in Huesca.

The accommodation in this luxury hotel of the Paradors group is in twenty five twin bedded rooms, five with a double bed, eight suites and one duplex.
