Bridge over the Río de la Canal Roja

Highlight • Bridge

The river narrows between reddish rocks, creating a beautiful place where the sound of the water's momentum echoes.

La Rinconada

Highlight • Gorge

Nice esplanade at the foot of Anayet. It is an old glacial cirque through which the Canal Roya winds with the water that comes down from the Anayet lakes.

Canal Roya

Highlight • Gorge

The mountainous massifs have the abrupt and alpine character of the great calcareous peaks, they form superb towers over the glacial channels and the mountain valleys carved by the tongues of ice that gave shape and environmental quality to the high Aragon mountains. The Canal Roya is a perfect glacial creation. The current reliefs of the valley were sculpted by the great masses of ice from the last glaciation of the Quaternary, some glaciers could be 400 meters thick at the head. The retreat of the ice gave rise to periglacial modelling, slope slides, fluvial erosion, avalanches and the rest of the environmental agents that have completed the current landscape.

Views of Anayet and its mountain lakes

Highlight • Viewpoint

From this point of the GR11 you can enjoy idyllic views of the high mountains. On one side, the peaks of Anayet, vertex (2,540) and peak (2,574 meters) and on the other, the Anayet lakes.
In addition, in the background, to the north, the silhouette of the summit of the Midi d'Ossau also rises, so unmistakable.
It is a spectacular place to stop to rest but, beware, it is better not to swim. On the one hand because there may be leeches and, on the other, because the Aragonese lakes are protected and our sun creams and deodorants can damage the water and its ecosystems.
