Riglos by public transport.
March 07, 2013, 05:00:56 pm
Anyone know if there's regular buses running from Riglos to/from Barcelona/Zaragoza/huesca?

If so can anyone point me to a website where I might be able to find times etc?

Cheers!

Just before the two main parking sites for Riglos there's a large bus terminal which has a shelter so I'd assume they DO exist and they aren't just for the tourist specific buses.

Maybe try ringing either a) the rifugio (if you speak Spanish) or b) (and a better bet), the bar. If you go, smile at the lady in the tourist shop, that way, one day, she may actually smile back at someone!

Not sure about June, but we went at the start of September last year when it's generally considered to be "too hot". The first couple of days it got up to around 27c but we climbed round the corner in the shade and it was fine, or got up early and finished early. We then got lucky and the wind swung round to the North cooling it to around 22c (midday).

If it's really hot you can get up early and ram the route before it gets too sweaty but you end up spending a lot of time hanging around the campsite so take plenty of books and some board shorts for the pool.

If it's really, really hot you can bail to rodellar.

P.S. to fully appreciate the place, you have to just embrace the lunacy of pulling on the huge bollos that don't seem attached. Mates of ours couldn't get into it and bailed to Rodellar after 2 days. Lightweights... ;-)
