Get to know the resort

Panticosa rises above a handsome old stone village in the Tena valley of the Aragonese Pyrenees, with around 40 km of sunny, scenic piste climbing to 2220 m. It is the quieter half of the Aramón Formigal-Panticosa pairing, sharing a lift pass with much larger Formigal up the valley, and is especially good for families and intermediates. Nearby, the spa resort of Baños de Panticosa offers thermal pools in a spectacular high mountain setting for a restful end to the day.
