Damaso’s House is ideal to visit the best places in the Pyrenees.
To the North, you have easy access to the valleys of Añisclo, Pineta and Chistau. You can even pop over the border to visit neighbouring France and get to know the near-bye villages of Saint Lary-Soulan, Arreau, Pau, Tarbes or Lourdes. A short distance to the South is the Somontano region. It’s the ideal area for wine tourism where you can visit one of its many wine producers and get to know the fine Original Denomination wines of the area.
To the East, through the Ribagorza region you can reach the Valley of Benasque and the ski resort at Cerler where you can enjoy the full spectrum of winter sports. And to the West lie the real Pyrenees with the Ordesa and Monte Perdido National Park. A bit further out that way is the Tena Valley with its charming villages and even more ski resorts at Panticosa and Formigal.
