Gállego Sallent de Gallego in Alto Gállego. By FredP The Pyrenees - from the perspective of urbanites - have always acted as an escape valve from the hustle and bustle of the cities, so visiting them always usually involves entering groves, walking around glacial lakes, visiting hidden stone villages and enjoying the good mountain cuisine, among other things. To do this, this time we propose a route through Alto Gállego , a land of superlative landscapes, ancient traditions and something else that is highly sought after these days: silence. Before getting into the overwhelming nature, it is worth visiting Sabiñánigo —and specifically the Ángel Oresanz and Artes del Serrablo Museum— to begin this route through Huesca, understanding its most human version. And the harsh conditions of life in the mountains, the growing depopulation of rural areas and the aging of its inhabitants meant that a large number of towns were abandoned in this part of Aragon.
José Antonio The desolate Basarán, Cortillas and Susín among many others were, until very recently, the home of families of shepherds and farmers who over time ended up leaving due to various circumstances. The objects (musical instruments, tools, crafts, dresses...) that make up the collection have been recovered from some of these Pyrenean Cell Phone Number List villages today only inhabited by vegetation. The museum also tells us about the uses and customs of the historical territories of the Tena Valley , the Serrablo and the land of Biescas , some of which have been perpetuated to this day. Churches of Serrablo Churches of Serrablo: San Pedro de Larrede. By José Antonio Another of the great historical riches of the region is found along the Gállego River. The churches of Serrablo – a series of bare stone temples in Lombard Romanesque style, that is, small in size, with a single nave and slender bell towers – are one of the great hallmarks of Alto Gállego. There are fifteen churches in the territory and most of them were recovered stone by stone by volunteers (from the Friends of Serrablo Association) who rebelled when they saw how, after the depopulation of many areas, their medieval historical heritage was condemned to disappear from the face of the earth.
Today, thanks to the work of these local heroes who returned them to their past splendor, we can visit them. Of course, those in San Martín de Ordovés , San Juan de Busa and San Martín de Oliván are usually open, but to enter the rest (San Bartolomé de Gavín, Santa Eulalia de Orós, etc.) it is necessary to ask for the key at some neighbor dolmen of Santa Elena dolmen of Santa Elena. by WindColors And one last step back in time to discover other human remains that also dot Alto Gallego: the megalithic monuments . They are very abundant and diverse in the region and are still there to remind us that during the Neolithic there were already complex societies settled in this little corner of the Pyrenees. Among the most spectacular – because there are many and they are unfathomable – are the tumuli, dolmens and cromlechs of Tramacastilla de Tena; the Santa Elena dolmen , which was restored after its destruction during the Civil War and the Ibrique dolmen, in the Picardiello mountain range—the entry point to the Guara mountain range—which is also known as Caseta d'as Bruxas.
