Pyrenees & Aragón Adventure – 5 Days /4 Nights
Day 1 – Journey into History & the Pyrenees (A Day That Sets the Tone)
Our adventure begins with a scenic drive north towards the Pyrenees, but this is far more than just a travel day.
Our first stop is the haunting ghost town of Belchite, one of Spain’s most powerful historical sites. Destroyed during the Spanish Civil War and left untouched as a memorial, walking through its silent streets is a truly moving and unforgettable experience.
Entrance: €8 (not included in tour price)
