Day 16 - Ibón Gran de Batisielles

A shorter walk today, to allow time to head to Torla in the evening.

Along the Valle d'Estos on the GR11 and then up to Ibón Gran de Batisielles, we're in Aragón now so no more Estany's for us. We complete a survey for some girls working for an Aragonese mountaineering organisation, they were quite excited to be able to put down England & Australia for countries of origin!

It's not a particularly long walk but the days of hiking are starting to take their toll and my feet kill at the end of it. So it's nice to be able to enjoy the scenery on the way to Torla from the comfort of the car.

Camp under a blanket of stars, the first time we've really been able to appreciate them.
