The excursion to the <strong>Elvira Fountain <\/strong>It will take about four and a half hours to walk there and back (five and a half hours with stops) along a trail with\u00a0<strong>1,000 metres of vertical drop\u00a0<\/strong>and crossing several snowfields (depending on the season, at the beginning of the campaign).<\/p><p>The tour starts on the Paseo de los Melanc\u00f3licos (the path that runs parallel to the railway tracks at the back of the\u00a0<strong>Canfranc train station<\/strong>). From there, take the path that leads to the refuge la\u00a0<strong>Casita Blanca\u00a0<\/strong>-It can be accessed both from the northern and southern end of the Paseo de los Melanc\u00f3licos, which allows you to choose between an uphill and a downhill path. It is a coniferous forest (spruce, pine and fir), with some leafy species (beech, hazel, ash...). Once in the Casita Blanca, we continue up the track that leads to\u00a0<strong>Picauve<\/strong>After passing a small refuge of the same name (at an altitude of 1,380 m), we turn off to the right to take the path that leads to the\u00a0<strong>Casita del Vasco\u00a0<\/strong>(1.880 m).<\/p><p>La Casita del Vasco is a ruined building, but a good place to stop, enjoy the scenery and then continue on our way to our final destination:\u00a0<strong>Fuente Elvira, located at 2,111 m<\/strong> altitude and built in 1944. The slope of the mountain is impressive, as it is full of avalanche defences that protect the impressive station building and its surroundings below.<\/p><p>After drinking water at the fountain and regaining our strength, we start the descent. We will follow the same path to the\u00a0<strong>Casita del Vasco<\/strong>\u00a0but, once there, we will take the\u00a0<strong>the path of the 20 walls<\/strong>The landscape is spectacular and wooded.<\/p><hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Los alrededores de Canfranc ofrecen interesantes excursiones.
