A legacy of the grayest history of this country

Remains of an old Civil War defensive position, located high on a hill between Monzón and Almunia de San Juan. Accessible via a dirt track, with a short but steep final slope. From the top, trenches, parapets, and some excavated lookout posts are preserved, as well as stunning views of the Cinca Valley and surrounding area. A historic spot, ideal for stopping, taking a breath, and reflecting on everything that happened in these mountains. Highly recommended for MTB or gravel routes in the area.

Almudévar is a town in Huesca in the Hoya de Huesca region, in the community of Aragón. The origins of Almudévar date back to pre-Roman times, when Basques lived there. Since Romanization it acquired great importance, being located in the heart of Vía Lata, the Roman road that linked Zaragoza with Lérida. After the Muslim domination it acquired the current toponym, which means "round", referring to the outline of the castle, a Muslim fortress known as Castle of the Crown. Among its heritage, the parish church of the Assumption stands out, whose construction began in 1757, as the old church, located within the castle grounds, threatened ruin.

This monument, also known as the San Simón Position, is a problematic and controversial tribute to the fallen of the Francoist army. This same building was built in the 1940s to commemorate Sergeant San Simón and his soldiers who fell in battle. In the area there are various signs of protest against this monument due to its relationship with La Falange.

This small municipality of Leciñena in the Aragonese Monegros has a small population (1150 in 2004) but quite a bit of history. The town played an important role in the reconquest of Zaragoza. Much later, during the Spanish Civil War it was part of the republican resistance until October 12, 1936 when Franco's troops took the town. The town has a very good hostel where you can enjoy the tranquility. Around Leciñena we can find Sabinas, a tree from the Mesozoic era that, thanks to its properties resistant to extreme temperatures, can coexist with the harsh weather conditions of the area.

The Valdabra Reservoir is located very close to the city of Huesca. Built in the early 1980s, over the years it has become a first-line setting for cyprinid fishing, mainly Carp and Roach. Prestigious championships such as the International Fiestas de San Lorenzo are held there.

The Sierra de Alcubierre acts as the backbone of Los Monegros and given its strategic location, it played a major role during the Civil War, dividing Aragon in two. On the A-129 road from Leciñena to Alcubierre (Km. 34.6) take the detour that leads to the position of Monte Irazo where this point is located.

The restored trenches of 1936 are a perfect place to see the sunrise and also camp inside where the soldiers also used to call the bivouac or life zone! Also recommended to visit
