Calvera is located in the Ribagorza comarca of Huesca, in the foothills of the Pyrenees. At 1,200 meters above sea level, Calvera has views of the Sierra de Sis and El Turbón massif. Just in front of Casa Puixico you’ll find the ancient tower of the castle of Calvera, which is catalogued as Spanish cultural heritage. One of the Romanesque jewels of the comarca also belongs to Calvera: the Monastery of Obarra (10th century). It’s a picturesque town with well-kept stone houses and streets, a Romanesque church (San Andrés, 11th century) and hiking trails that start in the town center. What you won’t find is either a bar or a bakery. It’s a truly rural town, with about 10 inhabitants who live here year round. Here you’ll find a pristine landscape, a peaceful setting, and a strategic location to get to know the Pre-Pyrenees and Pyrenees Mountains.
