Description

Learn how to snowshoe in the beautiful mountains of north Spain. This course will teach you how to enjoy the mountains in the snowy months, safely. Join me and I’ll show you the wonders of snowshoeing on these amazing Spanish landscapes.

Depending on the time of the year, weather, and location of the clients, we can do it in Aralar, Valdezcaray or Sierra de Urbasa in Navarra, in Ezcaray (La Rioja), in Alto Campoo (Cantabria) or in the Pyrenees.

Knowing how to use snowshoes is extremely important for outdoor lovers, especially those that do not let the weather stop them from going outside. Snow rackets allow you to enjoy the mountain in winter without sinking. They also make us access zones that are farther away. On this course, I’ll teach you the technique behind snowshoeing and how to safely savor the snow.

Don’t forget to bring: warm clothes, a rain jacket, trekking boots, a hat, sun glasses, sunscreen, gloves, flashlight, cellphone, food and water.

I can also arrange a two or three-day trip if you are interested.

Book your trip now and learn how to snowshoe! I’d love to teach you this wonderful sport.

About the guide

Mikel

Mountain Leader

UIMLA Mountain Leader from Spain

As a guide, I like when my clients enjoy and have an active participation, so they can learn to be autonomous in the risk management. With the security as a priority, the client can develop as a mountaineer.

That's why among the activities I offer as a mountain leader, I also have formation courses and free talks about security.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
