Located on the heights of the Aspe valley, this renovated refuge reopened its doors in 2023. Hikers can come and spend the night there, have a good meal, simply have a drink or even just enjoy the dream view.

The path passes by Fuente de los Abetazos and continues along the Villanúa forest track towards the Gabardito sheepfold. On the Carnicerías mountain there is a monumental pine tree at the turn-off for the Carnicerías peak (1,464 m). The path post indicates ten minutes to the metal house that marks the summit, but with snow the time is unpredictable because the terrain is uncomfortable and chaotic. The visit to the summit is worthwhile to contemplate the Canfranc Valley from a bird's eye view. The track returns to the main path at the giant tree and at the edge of the forest there is the post that indicates the entrance to the Gabardito sheepfold, just after passing the start of the descent path through the pegs of the Agüare ravine. The mountain becomes friendly and welcoming, there are no trees and in the clearing the eastern towers of the Aisa mountain range appear for the first time during the climb. The path continues straight ahead along the GR-11.1, the milestones are usually covered by snow and the reference is the Gabardito Refuge. The long-distance path passes by the refuge but the footprint can be on any side seeking to soften the hill of the sheepfold to enter the Añaza ravine and begin the second section of the route. The red and white marks of the path are painted on the trunks of the trees and in some places they take a while to appear, it is advisable to follow the virtual line of the track or follow the footprint opened by the passage of other mountaineers when possible. The path skirts the mountain inside a pine forest for a kilometre and new steep slopes begin to avoid the Campon ravine, on the edge of the Western Valleys Natural Park.
