Formigales

Highlight • Settlement

Formigales is a small town belonging to the municipality of La Fueva. It is located in the Campanué mountain range and very close to the Formigales ravine. The town stands out for preserving a large stone mansion, the Palace of the Murs, a turreted house from the 15th century where the Baron de Formigales lived.

Troncedo Castle and Village

Highlight • Castle

Troncedo is a small town and mountain pass that is located at 1,009 meters above sea level in the southeastern end of La Fueva, on top of a hill on the slope of the Sierra del Turón from Graus to the Fuevan hollow, but which is currently along the HU-V-6441 road. The most defining characteristic of Troncedo is its castle, of which only the homage tower remains, which is larger than those of other main castles in Sobrarbe (the castle of Aínsa or the castle of Boltaña), which makes one think in the proportions that it could have in its time of use. Due to the importance of the castle of Troncedo, the antiquity of the place is known, since documents have been found since the reign of Sancho el Mayor (first half of the 11th century) that already testify to the importance of defending the county of Troncedo, Sobrarbe as well as the nearby town of Graus, which was still Moorish. In 1797 Troncedo had 150 inhabitants; currently has about thirty inhabitants.
The road from Graus is in very good condition for road cycling, little traffic, good asphalt and steep climbs. On the other hand, on the Trillo side the road can be defined as a paved forest track and has steeper slopes and very tight curves.

Church of Salinas de Trillo

Highlight • Religious Site

The name of Salinas derives from the exploitation of salt in the Salinar ravine, which is the most likely origin of the settlement in the area. The water of this ravine is rich in minerals and for centuries there has been knowledge of salt mines in the surroundings. Salinas is located on the southern slopes of the San Marcos (or Trillo) hill, in the basin of the Salinar ravine, which is a direct tributary of the Cinca River through the Ligüerre de Cinca margin. It is not part of the natural subregion of La Fueva, although since the 1960s the surrounding towns have been incorporated into the municipality of La Fueva. However, it has always had a close relationship with the towns of La Fueva itself, which they bought salt in Salinas. It has a fortified house called Casa Palacio, which is a good example of Las Casas Torreadas del Alto Aragón.

Hermitage of Santa Brígida

Highlight • Religious Site

The hermitage of Santa Brígida gives its name to its hill and to a tributary ravine of the Salinar that rises near it. It is located on the road from Lo Entremón to Tierrantona, before reaching Palo, just at the detour to Salinas de Trillo.
