Huesca
I discovered Huesca by accident on a trip to Aragón several years ago. North of Zaragoza and right before the foothills of the Pyrenees, Huesca is a charming small town overlooked by just about everyone. It is a great day trip from Zaragoza, and one of my favorite small towns in Spain. I spent two days here years ago in October, and completely fell in love with it. I even had one of my most moving moments in Spain to date.
Getting there: there are regular trains and buses from Zaragoza.
When to go: anytime of the year is beautiful. Huesca’s festival, San Lorenzo occurs for a week in August around the 9-15.
If you only do one thing: climb to the top of the little cathedral for views of the whole town and the mountains in the distance.
