The village of Canfranc is a street with houses on either side, there is no room for much else, the mountain slopes grow from the banks of the Aragón River and do not stop until they exceed two thousand metres in altitude, the valley is a perfect mountain architecture. In the square there is a bar and there is the church of the Assumption, from the 12th century, rustic and rural, a traditional landmark of asylum and protection for the pilgrims from Santiago de Compostela who passed through the Somport pass on their way to Jaca. In another building there is the mountain hostel and little else, there are several tourist accommodations but Canfranc is still a quiet mountain village, isolated from the bustle generated by the alpine ski resorts in the upper part of the valley, it is stuck in time. A good place to start the track is the church square, you have to cross the French road that goes up towards Canfranc-Estación and look for the GR-11.1 post at the beginning of the path of the Gabardito sheepfold. The path is fabulous, it doesn't seem like there could be a path with a pleasant layout in a forest wall of inhospitable and inaccessible appearance. The path climbs between walls of moss-covered stones and mountain huts along the Arones ravine, crosses the stream by a dam regulating the stream and marks several switchbacks on the slope of boxwood and fir trees until the Villanúa track. At the crossroads there are signs for the local trails and the GR-11.1 towards Gabardito and Lizara. The route in winter is ideal for walking on snowshoes.
