An inviting and quaint village in La Peña valey, Triste is located within the San Juan de la Peña Cultural Park.
Its slender Parish Church of Santa María rises from between the houses. The building dates back to the Middle Ages with its 12th-century Romanesque style. Its slender bell tower is attached to an elegant Lombard-style apse.
The homes feature traditional mountain architecture, with solid conical chimneys, arched doors, and several coats of arms.
Of great ethnological significance, the traditional textile workshop, dedicated to the weaving craft, is a must-visit.
Triste is one of the villages in Hoya de Huesca through which the Catalan section of the Camino de Santiago (Way of St. James) passes, as well as part of the GR95, specifically the La Peña Estación-Ena stage.
Triste celebrates its annual festivals on July 15th in honor of Our Lady of Carmen and on August 15th in honor of the Assumption of Mary.
