DIFFICULTY: Red+
DISTANCE: 16.50 km

TIME: 3:30h. - 4h. h
WITH MUD: Feasible
MARKINGS: SI
AREA: Centro
EXIT: Ainsa
ARRIVAL: Aínsa
DESCRIPTION
Short route around 3 hours, but different, challenging and surprising. The percentage of path on this route is very high (over 50%).
The hill and tower at Cotón will exhaust the battery of your camera. Spectacular views and challenging descent.
The next milestone is to ascend the Partara peak, superb viewpoint of the Pyrenees.
The descent is long, without much difficulty, and reserve us an unexpected route at the foot of a cliff.
If the river Ena is spading, descent back to Ainsa by the “Partara Express”, new track 2013 that doesn’t cross the river.
Variant: “old Morillo road.” If you don’t dispose time, you can avoid the hill of Cotón continuing right ahead along nice pine woods.
TERRAIN
52% trail
RECOMMENDATIONS
All year round.
In the rainy season you will have to get wet crossing the Ena River at the end of the route.
