The route reaches the viewpoint over the forau, continues near the waterfall and opens onto Plan de Aigualluts, a broad glacial meadow surrounded by mountains.
Part of the water coming from the Aneto and Maladeta area disappears into the natural sinkhole and later resurfaces on the Aran side, which makes the route more than a scenic walk.
The walk can be started from Vado del Hospital or shortened from La Besurta when access is available. From there, take the left-hand path after the Renclusa junction towards the forau viewpoint.
After the viewpoint, the path passes the waterfall and continues to the wide meadow of Plan de Aigualluts, with the Aneto and Maladeta massif as the main backdrop.
The usual access is linked to La Besurta and Llanos del Hospital, with regulations or shuttle transport in some periods. Check current access before setting off.
It is a strong first taste of Benasque high mountain scenery when the route version matches the group and weather, footwear, water and warm layers are planned.
From La Besurta it can be manageable for many walkers, but it is still high mountain terrain and conditions must be checked.
Many families choose shorter versions, adapting pace, timing and equipment to the children and the day.
Staying in central Benasque helps you leave early and return for dinner on foot close to services.
