Valle del Aragón, River valley in Jacetania, Spain

The Aragon Valley extends from the French border at Somport Pass to the southern plains, following the path of the Aragon River through the Pyrenees.

The valley contains the Ciudadela fortress from the 16th century and the medieval Cathedral of Jaca, marking its importance as a defensive and religious center.

The Santiago's Road passes through the valley, connecting multiple Romanesque churches, including Santa María de Iguácel and San Adrián de Sasabe.

The valley maintains three border crossings to France: the Somport Pass at 1640 meters, the Somport tunnel, and the former railway crossing at Canfranc Station.

The Witches Caves in Villanúa and ancient megalithic dolmens reveal the early human settlements that shaped the valley's heritage.
