Many cultures, including Iberians, Romans, Arabs, Jews and Christians have left their footprints in the form of a valuable he- ritage from all epochs and styles. Middle Ages castles, Roman theatres, monasteries and cathedrals and a rich Mudéjar heri- Hoya de Huesca NT tage make visitors feel immersed in history, and at the same NATURE TRAILS time allow them to enjoy its natural beauty.
