    🏕️ Where to sleep:
    Refugio de Barroude It is currently undergoing reconstruction.
    Cabaña de Barrosa (open, 6 seats). 
    Several rural accommodations in Parzán: Casa Marion (tel: 974 501 190), Casa Quilez (tel: 974 501 124 / 679 64 41 87), La Fuen (tel: 974 501 047), María Zueras Ferrer (tel: 974 501 124).
    Next to the gas station there is a supermarket with all kinds of appliances, a fruit shop and food for the stove. There is also a cafeteria-restaurant, Hermanos Vidallé (tel: 974 501 126).

    Easy stage with a finish in the village of Parzán, where we can take the opportunity to refuel.

    From the refuge, the route heads towards the port of Barrosa, which is the only uphill section of the day. From here, the trail descends sharply.

    Upon reaching the bottom, the road crosses the Barrosa River and continues along the right bank parallel to it and through the valley floor until it reaches the A-138 road, two and a half kilometers below the Bielsa tunnel.

    From here we can make a self-stop or travel along the road the five kilometers to Parzán.
