The Senda Pirenaica descends the Bujaruelo valley through the narrow Garganta de los Navarros and enters the Ordesa y Monte Perdido National Park going up the Ordesa valley to end at the Góriz refuge.

📌 (0h00min; 0,0kms) Bujaruelo refuge (1.338m). The GR11 crosses the medieval bridge of San Nicolás to descend the valley on the left bank, along the Cobatar path. In about 3 kilometres we reach the bridge of Los Abetos, just in front of the Valle de Bujaruelo campsite. Do not cross the bridge and continue along the left bank until you reach the...

📌 (1h25min; 4,1kms) Puente Nuevo or Puente de Santa Elena (1,208m), Here we once again find the track that is passable for vehicles that climbs up to the refuge. Cross the bridge and continue along the path that now runs along the right bank of the narrow Garganta de los Navarros. After 3 or 4 minutes we cross a stream💧 that comes from a waterfall known as the “Salto del Carpín” and 10 minutes later, in the middle of a small climb, we reach the Paso de la Escala -an easy crossing equipped with a life line-. On the descent, which begins with magnificent views over the Ordesa valley, we will pass two crossings on the right that lead to the Cebollar pass and Torla. The GR11 leads to the access road to the Ordesa meadow. We follow it to the left for about 300 metres until we reach the...

📌 (2h30min; 7,3kms) Puente de los Navarros (1.075m), western boundary of the National Park. The GR11 leaves the road and, passing under it, descends to cross the Arazas River over the Canaleta Bridge. Immediately afterwards you take a path that ascends to the left - to the right one of the Caminos de Santiago descends to Torla - and stops 10 minutes later on a wider path. To the right you go to Torla on the GR15.2, to the left the GR11 ascends on the path to Turieto Bajo. The path enters the Ordesa Valley. Gigantic walls open up on both sides. On the left side, the Mondarruego or the famous Tozal de Mallo, on the right, the Sierra de las Cutas. The route is also enlivened by three waterfalls: Molinieto, Tamborrotera and Los Abetos. The GR11 goes back towards the Ordesa meadow, when it reaches a path adapted for wheelchairs.

📌 (4h20min; 12,6kms) Pradera de Ordesa (1.300m). In summer, it is the starting point for most hikers. Buses arrive every few days to the car park, which is closed in summer. In the surrounding area there are several sources💧, public toilets, bar and souvenir shop. The path goes all the way up the Ordesa valley. In about 45 minutes we arrive at a viewpoint over the Arripas waterfall and source💧. Soon after that you see the fork to the waterfalls of La Cueva and El Estrecho, the latter has another fork further uphill. You pass a shelter (1h20min from the meadow), then a sourceWe reach the Gradas de Soaso (2h from the meadow) -a succession of small waterfalls. After several loops we leave the forest behind us and come out onto a large esplanade enclosed at the back by the wall of the Circo de Soaso. Near the path there is a small free refuge.

📌 (7h00min; 21,4kms) Cola de Caballo (1.750m). Hidden on the left side of the cirque is the most famous of the Ordesa y Pirineos waterfalls. At this point there are two possibilities, either to ascend straight ahead along the Soaso pegs or to follow the GR11 route to the right. The peg saves 10 minutes and is only recommended in dry terrain for mountaineers who do not suffer from the altitude.

📌 (8h30min; 24,6kms) Góriz Hut (2.200m).
