Hiking
In addition to contemplating beautiful views over the city of Jaca, at the top of the Rapitán we can see an old military fort from the end of the 19th century.
The Rapitán fort is part of the defensive line erected at that time to prevent new invasions from the other side of the Pyrenees.
The City Council of Jaca organizes tourist visits and sporadic exhibitions inside.

For many, the best thing about Rapitán is the views of Jaca, which help you make a mental map of the city. The Fort can be visited from the inside occasionally with visits organized by the City Council.
