The Conangles Valley, between beech trees and waterfalls, unique nature

The Conangles beech forest is one of the most important beech and fir forests in the Iberian Peninsula. This spectacular forest is located at the south mouth of the Vielha Tunnel, next to the Conangles Refuge, at the foot of the Noguera Ribagorzana River and within the Aigüestortes and Sant Maurici National Park, the only national park in Catalonia and the centre of a large Protected Natural Area. You will start your journey accompanied by a mountain guide through a small corner of the forest and majestic beech trees with ghostly shapes, waterfalls and lakes. The combination of beeches and fir trees in autumn provides an explosion of colours in reddish, garnet, ochre and gold tones, creating a unique light in the months of October and November. You will discover an old natural pass used since ancient times as a communication route between the regions of Arán and La Ribagorza, from where you can enjoy one of the best views of the Val d’Aran surrounded by mountains of more than 3000 meters, such as the Besiberri Norte, the Besiberri Sur, the Pic de Comaloformo, or the Punta Alta de Comalesbienes.
