We are looking for this place #165
Let's continue the challenge! Every week we look for a place in the Pyrenees. By observing the photograph and with the help of the clues, are you able to find out which place is the one we are looking for? If you want to take part by sending us a place, you can send us your pictures together with the clues and the solution to the email address travesiapirenaica@gmail.com. Each week we will choose one for publication.
We are looking for this place #165:
From autumn to spring, when many torrents that are usually dry wake up from their summer slumber, is the best time to visit the waterfalls, even better after heavy rains.
Don't think twice, grab your rubber boots and your mackintosh, we're going to...
Tracks:
- The valley of Salazar, in Navarre.
- To one of those forgotten valleys that are left behind when we drive to the Pyrenees.
- From the hermitage or from the previous village, that of the petrol station, there is a short route of an hour and a half, ideal for visiting this secluded spot.

We are looking for this place #164:
More than a seaside resort, this imposing neoclassical building looks like a fortress straight out of an Indiana Jones or James Bond movie. Can you tell us which place it is?
Tracks:

- A small road leads up to the 1,720 metres above sea level where it is located, which was once the highest spa in Spain.
- A variant of the GR11 passes through this place.
