Today we propose you a circular excursion through the&nbsp;<strong>Rac\u00f3n Girdle<\/strong>&nbsp;(the narrow pathway at the foot of the vertical walls that border the&nbsp;<strong>Carriata and Cotatuero circuses<\/strong>) with a route of about 8 kilometres where you can enjoy breathtaking views. It is a route without major difficulties, although it is necessary to be aware of possible rockfalls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/es.wikiloc.com\/wikiloc\/spatialArtifacts.do?event=view&amp;id=15385001&amp;measures=off&amp;title=off&amp;near=off&amp;images=off&amp;maptype=H\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" width=\"100%\" height=\"400\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The route starts at\u00a0<strong>Oliban House<\/strong>\u00a0(former information centre of the National Park). We will leave the car in the Ordesa meadow car park (open all year round except in summer and Easter, when you have to park in the parking area).<strong>\u00a0Torla<\/strong>) and return on foot for about one kilometre in the direction of Torla until you reach Casa Olib\u00e1n. On the right wall of Casa Olib\u00e1n starts the path towards the\u00a0<strong>Carriata Circus<\/strong>\u00a0-the usual ascent to the\u00a0<strong>Tozal del Mallo<\/strong>-. We start the climb, which is gentle at first and then a little steeper, with the Salarons ravine on the left, until we reach a crossroads, approximately 1.2 km from the start of the route. The path to the left would take us to the Circo de Cotatuero, but we will take the narrow path to the right towards the Faja de Rac\u00f3n. The walk passes through black pine forests and ravines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>YOU MAY BE INTERESTED IN: <a href=\"https:\/\/travesiapirenaica.com\/en\/routes-through-ordesa-monte-perdido\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ascents and routes in the Ordesa y Monte Perdido National Park<\/a><\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This trail takes advantage of the spectacular Rac\u00f3n Gorge to carve a niche in the vegetation and allow the hiker to walk along the base of the walls of the<strong>&nbsp;pico Gallinero<\/strong>.  Along the wall, the path passes through forests and open areas that provide spectacular views of the Ordesa valley and the surrounding peaks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, at a fork in the road, leave the turn-off for the<strong>&nbsp;Cotatuero Circus<\/strong>&nbsp;to the left and continue along a marked path that descends through the thick beech forest to the Pilar chapel, already in the valley. At this point, the route turns off to the right, along a wide path delimited by a leafy<strong>&nbsp;spruce and beech forest<\/strong>s, which runs parallel to the right bank of the&nbsp;<strong>Arazas River<\/strong>&nbsp;until you reach the Ordesa meadow car park, where this circular route ends.
