What to expect
You'll travel in a comfortable private vehicle across rolling Aragonese countryside, arriving at a striking hilltop complex with sweeping mountain views. The core experience is a 45-minute immersive visit inside the sanctuary itself—reflective and reverent in tone, designed for those with genuine spiritual interest. Outside, the grounds invite quiet contemplation and photography. The landscape shifts dramatically by season: spring brings almond and cherry blossom clouds; summer showcases ripening grapes; autumn turns vineyards gold and crimson. Lunch and wine tastings aren't included but your guide can recommend local spots.
Good to know
This trip is primarily for practising Catholics or those seeking spiritual reflection—secular visitors may find it less engaging. Wear comfortable shoes for walking grounds. Inform your guide beforehand if you'd like to visit a Somontano winery. The site is fully wheelchair accessible.
