    families around Europe and even overseas.
    Today it has 156 km² and it's included in the Biosphere Reserve of "Ordesa-Viñamala" declared by UNESCO in 1997.

    Its orography is dominated by the calcareous mass (the biggest of Europe) of the massiff of the Three "Sorores", "Treserols", whose greater elevation is the "Monte Perdido" (3355m), from which in a more or less radial form descend a series of impressive mountainous crests and glacial valleys beeing the most characteristic the "Ordesa Canyon (or Valley)".
