Natural Wonders
This collection highlights the geological diversity of the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park in the central Pyrenees. It features the Aneto Glacier, the largest ice mass in the range, and the Forau de Aigualluts, a karst sinkhole where glacial meltwater disappears underground. The selection includes high-altitude 'ibones' like the Ibón Blanco de Literola, situated at 2,692 meters, and dramatic cascades such as the Gorgas de Alba and the Ardonés waterfall near Cerler.
