Aragon is a vast territory with great diversity in terms of geography, climate and landscapes, allowing to enjoy different touristic resources along the year.
In winter, you can experience the charm of snow and the festive atmosphere of Christmas. Spring is ideal for immersing yourself in nature, with vibrant colors and flowing water, and discovering the rich heritage of its villages and towns (an activity also highly recommended in fall). In summer, embrace active tourism and cool off in one of the many rivers.
HOW TO GET Zaragoza is the capital of Aragon, and its central location allows you to connect with Spain’s major cities—Barcelona, Madrid, Bilbao, and Valencia—in under 300 km. If you choose the AVE high-speed train, you can reach Madrid or Barcelona from Zaragoza in approximately one and a half hours.

Major coach companies, such as Ágreda, Alosa, Alsa, Hife, Autobuses Jiménez, and Therpasa, provide services to various destinations both within Aragón and beyond. Of course, having a vehicle to explore this remarkable region will provide you with greater independence.

Not only will this make your journey more enjoyable, but it will also give you the chance to uncover a fascinating Islamic heritage that will surely impress you.
