Highlight
- The vernacular fabla, the cheso, is preserved.
- Just two kilometers away is Siresa , a highly recommended visit and from where you can access the Selva de Oza, an impressive forest of beech and fir trees that is absolutely unforgivable to miss.
From there we can get closer to Acherito's ibón. - Direct connection with the Valle de Anso.
- It has a beautiful popular architecture with impressive chimneys and harmonious use of plant elements forming false gardens with stone and construction wood; Even the stacks of wood for winter fuel increase the picturesqueness of the place.
- The Chesos are convinced that it was in their neighborhoods where the famous battle against the hosts of Charlemagne that gave birth to the "Chanson de Roland" was fought; the official history locates this place in Roncesvalles, in the Navarrese Pyrenees.
- There is an exhibition of outdoor sculptures, located on the left of the road, which were ceded by the artists to the town in exchange for maintenance while working on them.
