In Route to the Santuary of Lourdes - Spain
In case you want to go directly to Lourdes and visit Torreciuded in a later stage, we suggest this other option through the Somport tunnel. This is one of the most beautiful and exciting itineraries that you can take. The road runs through Huesca, Jaca and Canfranc all the way to the French border.Not far from Jaca you can find one of the jewels of this trip, the San Juan de la Pena Royal Monastery. it is a spectacular medieval monastery nestled in the rock from which takes its name. It is one of the best preserved treasures of the Aragonese patrimony. The magnificent Romanesque cloister is covered by the mountain. This combination of mountain and cloister makes San Juan de la Pena a unique set piece.
The crossing to the French side takes place through the historic Somport Tunnel, across the Pyrenees National Park, Pau, capital city of the Aquitaine and Tarbes, will take you to the sanctuary of Lourdes.
