Pineta Valley
Valle de Pineta
A broad glacial valley northeast of Monte Perdido, with meadows, waterfalls and a panorama of the towering cliffs straight ahead, ideal for a relaxed drive and a picnic.
Pineta Valley lies in the northeast of the national park. Its broad U-shaped valley floor is made up of meadows and pine forest. At the far end of the valley rises a huge wall of Monte Perdido's peaks and glaciers, and during the snowmelt season several waterfalls pour down from it. You can drive to the valley floor, to the state-run hotel and to the Chapel of Our Lady of Pineta, then stroll along the river or have a picnic. It is about 1.5 hours' drive from Torla (via Ainsa and Bielsa), and you can spend the night in Bielsa.
