This route is known as PR®-HU21 Senda de los Ganchos (meaning Path of the Hooks). It is also known as the Boca del Infierno (Hell's Mouth) Loop. Description The starting point is a parking area before a bridge over the Rio Aragón Subordán (Puente de Santa Ana). (D/A) Head towards the North-West and cross the road to head towards the North-East on the GR®11 which takes the old Roman road which passes above the place called "Boca del Infierno" where the Rio is embedded in a canyon and runs alongside an old fortified tower. Continue on the path which goes down towards the river. After the effort... well-deserved Comfort and Rest at our Refuge: "Borda BISALTICO" Ctra. Gabardito Km.2. 22720 ECHO (Huesta) Some photos at the end, for an invitation to travel!!
Route in the so-called Boca del Infierno in the Hecho Valley. You can start from the Santa Isabel bridge at the detour to Gabardito or further up the Secadero bridge with a parking area as well. We start from this point with a strong initial climb along the so-called Senda de los Ganchos. The route is beautiful through the native forest, but also very closed since you have no views of the surroundings until you practically reach the Santa Isabel bridge. The return along the Roman Road is a steeper and more open ascent with clearer views of the environment that surrounds us.
