This week we invite you to discover the Ill\u00f3n mountain range, one of the most outstanding mountain ranges of the pre-Pyrenees in the western part of the mountain range, and to climb to its highest point, the Borreguil or Belb\u00fan (1,424m).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Borreguil or Belb\u00fan is located on the border between Navarre and Zaragoza. It seems that the name Borreguil is a Jacobean word that refers to a mountain with grassy slopes. The name \"O Borreguil\" is therefore typical of the Aragonese (Zaragoza) side of the mountain. This is the best known name of the mountain, as it appears on the SITAR maps, on the IGN cartography and on some signs that we find along the route. The other name for the peak is Belb\u00fan, which is how it appears on the SITNA or OSM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The route we propose to reach Borreguil is not the classic route from the mountain pass of Las Coronas, along the boring track that runs along the Ca\u00f1ada Real de los Roncaleses, but from kilometre 5 of this road. It is a circular route that runs almost all the time along paths and through woods, where we can visit several megaliths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
