Formigal is a beautiful mountain village, situated at an altitude of 1,500 meters and very close to the French border. It lies in the stunning Tena Valley, in the heart of the Aragonese Pyrenees .
Beyond the beauty of its mountains and the spectacular scenery, Formigal stands out as one of Spain's premier ski destinations. Opposite the town lies the ski resort of the same name, Aramon Formigal .
This resort boasts 138 kilometers of skiable terrain, spread across 97 runs (38 black, 33 red, 19 blue, and 7 green) . It has four access points (Sextas, Sarrios, Anayet, and Portalet) , with a minimum altitude of 1,501 meters and a maximum altitude of 2,251 meters .
Besides being a skier's paradise , the resort attracts numerous snowboarders, as it boasts a comprehensive snowpark with features for both beginners and experts. Not to mention the two cross-country skiing and snowshoeing trails located in the Portalet area.
As an added value, Aramon allows you to purchase a joint ski pass that gives access to the Formigal and Panticosa resorts, thus increasing the skiable kilometers by 38 and the ski slopes by 45.
Furthermore, it's worth noting that the Aramon Formigal resort offers numerous services, including a freeride area, snowmobiles, snowbikes, a toboggan run, childcare facilities, ski schools, bars, restaurants, and more. Just one kilometer from the resort, in the town of Formigal, this list of services continues to expand with shops, supermarkets, a pharmacy, ski equipment rental shops, a bus service to the slopes, and numerous holiday apartment buildings.
When spring arrives and the snow melts, Formigal doesn't lose its appeal. It transforms into a major mountain resort, with countless hiking and mountain biking trails, beautiful viewpoints, and numerous opportunities for multi-adventure activities in the area (canyoning, via ferrata, and paragliding, among many others).
A few kilometers from Formigal is also Lacuniacha , a wildlife park that allows you to discover some of the most representative animals and plants of the Pyrenees through a pleasant walk through the forest.
Another major reason to visit the Tena Valley is its beautiful mountain villages. Traditional architecture has been preserved and respected in these villages, and many charming corners can still be found. Their churches and chapels have a special allure, as do their squares and narrow streets.
But if there is one thing that stands out about this ski area in Spain, it is its wide slopes and its youthful atmosphere at any time of year.

Formigal is the main ski resort in the entire Aragonese Pyrenees and for many years has been the choice of young people due to its après ski scene in Spain thanks to its Marchica nightclub, a project that Aramón launched in 2009 and which has become established.
Primarily on weekends, but also throughout the entire ski season, Marchica's program is sure to impress. The area's most renowned DJs spin their tunes for visitors to enjoy after a long day on the slopes. And don't miss the festivals they organize several times a season.
But it's not all about partying; in summer this green area of the Pyrenees transforms and is ideal for family trips to the mountains.
The ski resort's infrastructure blends seamlessly with the surrounding greenery, offering beautiful panoramic views from its gondolas, which children love, as well as bike rides through its green summer meadows, or a peaceful stay in the streets of the residential area where the little ones can enjoy great freedom while the adults relax peacefully and breathe fresh, clean air with enviable views.
And don't miss the longest zip line in Spain, the Valle de Tena zip line, just 15 minutes from the station. It starts from the top of the village of Hoz de Jaca and runs the entire length of the Búbal reservoir, located between Biescas and Sallent de Gállego – a unique experience for everyone.
Whether you're adventurous or not, given the safety of the zip line, anyone can glide along it and admire the breathtaking views of the reservoir and the Tena Valley for 10 minutes at high speed, all while feeling the wind rush through your veins. This activity is ideal for spring and summer, and booking is highly recommended if you're going on a weekend.
