In this post we are going to show you all the alpine ski resorts that you can enjoy in the Aragonese Pyrenees.
The Aragonese Pyrenees borders with Catalonia, Navarra and France, perhaps that is why it is the richest in fauna and flora. It has the highest peaks like the Aneto or Monte Perdido that exceed 3.000 Mts.
It is divided into 5 regions: La Ribagorza, Sobrarbe, Alto Gállego and Jacetania and La Hoya de Huesca. Its medieval villages, its legends, its architectural heritage and its gastronomy make it unique in the world.
Its protected areas as well as its Natural Parks such as Ordesa and Monte Perdido, its great mountains, rivers, glaciers, glaciers, ibones, ravines, valleys and also the immense forests make this place a privileged environment.

If we add to this the environment, we have some very interesting resorts for the practice of alpine skiing. How to get there? It is accessed thanks to 40 different lifts, where there are conveyor belts, ski lifts and chairlifts for 2, 3 and 4 skiers.

Located in the Alto Gállego, specifically in the Tena Valley, is the Formigal-Panticosa resort, which until 2015, snow lovers will remember, were two independent resorts. Panticosa and its two valleys, Sabocos and Petrosos, joined the four of Formigal (Portalet, Anayet, Izas and Tres Hombres) turning the villages of the valley into the base of the resort with the largest domain in kilometers of our country in its day.
«The future is a large domain to be able to compete with Andorra and the others. To attract the international public,» commented Joaquín del Rincón, Marketing Director of Aramón Formigal-Panticosa in those years.
They currently have 182 ski kilometers, with 147 slopes, two of which are new and located in the Lapazuso valley (12 green, 36 blue, 52 red and 42 black), and 5 different itineraries.
A wide surface whose highest point is at 2265 meters and the lowest at 1145 meters.
