  • Duration: Circular Route: 1h 15m.
  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Ascent: 130 m.   

Leave Benasque and take the direction of the campsite of the Baths at 8 Kms from the town.

The botanical trail Maladeta Posets – passes by the old road linking the Kingdom of Aragon and the south of France with the Benasque Valley. Admire while passing the diversity of the natural landscape.  The path starts by the Pllan de Tupi, after passing the camping and a bridge over the river Ésera. A sign indicates the beginning of the path it is marked out with two parallel stripes of dark green and light green. The path reaches the forest road that connects los Baños with Llanos de Hospital. 

At this point we must return to the path that takes us to the Gorgas de Alba, two magnificent waterfalls, from there we will continue down the path marked out in dark green and light green to our starting point, the Camping de los Baños.
