Approach notes

Spain: From Jaca take the N-330 towards Sabinanigo, after 17Km turn right and taka the A-136 towards france, after 25Km turn right and take the A-2606 to the balneario de panticosa where you arrive after 10.5Km

france: From el Portalet you take the A-136 towards Sabinanigo, after 15Km turn left and take the A-2606 and folow as before.

Note the road gets closed easyly in the winter afer snow or for avalanche risk, in the samer there is no motor access to the balneario so you will need to park in the car park just outside the complex.
