GR-11.2. Stage 01. Biadós Refuge - Ángel Orús Refuge

The GR-11.2 route, in its first stage, connects the Biadós Refuge with the Ángel Orús Refuge, offering a unique experience in the heart of the Aragonese Pyrenees. With a length of 10.1 kilometers, this stage presents a considerable challenge, as it involves a height difference of 1177 meters, classifying it as high difficulty. The route begins at the Biadós Refuge, an ideal starting point for nature and mountain lovers. As you progress, you delve into a breathtaking mountainous landscape, where the native flora and fauna unfold in all its splendor. The path takes you through well-marked trails, surrounded by a natural environment that invites contemplation and enjoyment of the fresh air. One of the highlights of this stage is the Ángel Orús Refuge, also known as El Forcau. This refuge is located in the valley of Aigüeta de Eriste, at the foot of the Forcau Needles, at an altitude of 2,000 meters. This place not only serves as a resting point for hikers but also offers spectacular views of the surrounding mountains and is an excellent starting point for further exploration of the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park. The GR-11.2 is more than just a hiking route: it is a journey that connects walkers with the essence of the Pyrenees. Along the way, hikers can enjoy the tranquility of nature, the singing of birds and, with a little luck, spot some local wildlife. This stage is ideal for those seeking a physical challenge and wishing to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of Aragon.
