Points of interest
- Km 0: Departure from Broto.
• Km 3: Buesa. Arrival by road, overcoming sections with quite steep slopes. Very good views of the Broto valley and the Ribera del Ara.
• Km 15.3: Summit of Punta Estatón after climbing via the Pista de la Caña. Everything surrounding you up here, as well as throughout the climb, is beautiful. Reaching the top, the views of the Taillón peak and the Breach of Roland (Brecha de Rolando) stand out, among many other peaks.
• Km 20.2: Ordesa Viewpoints. A beautiful high-mountain track above 2,000 meters in altitude, where you can enjoy beautiful panoramic views of the Ordesa Valley from above.
• Km 39.5: Fanlo Pass. A fast descent along the Las Cutas dirt track, which is in perfect condition, from where you can spot the silhouette of Peña Montañesa. After leaving the village of Nerín behind, you connect with the asphalt road and reach the summit of the Fanlo pass, after a slightly more demanding final two-kilometer climb.
• Km 50.5: Sarvisé. Reached via the road that crosses the beautiful Pardina del Señor forest. Cycling through this area is highly recommended in the autumn, when the leaves of the trees stand out for their vibrant colors.
• Km 53.5: Arrival in Broto.
Water / Refreshment point
• You can find water points in the villages along the route. For eating and supplies, options are available in Broto, Buesa, Nerín, and Sarvisé.
• Remember to refill your water and carry enough food for the section between Buesa and Torla along the Ordesa Viewpoints track, as there are no water or supply points on this stretch.
Caution
• The section of the Ordesa Viewpoints track is restricted to regular traffic, but 4×4 taxi services operate there. Special attention must be paid during the descent along the Las Cutas track towards Nerín.
