MASPIRINEO

TEMPLARS AND PYRENEES

The mountain passes that, historically, have brought territories closer together, were the ‘roads’ used by our ancestors. They travelled on foot or on the back of their donkeys, mules or horses, these cobbled roads for commercial, social, expeditionary or even defensive purposes.

Delve into the stories behind these mountain passes, and walk through the same passes that centuries ago the Templars and Pyrenees travelled through to pass from one valley to another.
