Panticosa (in Aragonese: Pandicosa[2][3]) is a municipality located in the province of Huesca, Aragon, Spain.
During the late 19th century and early 20th century, it was a successful spa town, famous for its pure mountain waters which supposedly cured everything from liver disease to herpes.
Its Belle Époque spa buildings are well-kept and still in use.
The first-ever FAI World Paragliding Hike and Fly Championship will take place in Panticosa from June 6 to June 13, 2027.[4]
