Description

The Naranjo de Bulnes is a very well known summit around the world. With 2,519 meters above sea level, it is located in the Picos de Europa National Park in the Cabrales community of Asturias. This is one of the most visited national parks in Spain.

Furthermore, the Naranjo de Bulnes is one of the several mountain peaks from the Urrieles Massif. This is the most important mountain from the three massifs that form the Picos de Europa, a mountain range that covers the northern coast of Spain.

During this 2-day trip, you will be able to climb this beautiful and unique summit. Also, we will stay on the lovely Urriellu refuge at the foot of the mountain.

As for the itinerary, we will first start walking towards the base of the mountain. To reach there we will leave the village of Sotres, the highest village of the Picos de Europa National Park. We will reach the Urriellu Refuge by the afternoon. It’s situated at 1,960 meters right at the foot of the Naranjo de Bulnes. We will spend the night there.

On the second day, we will reach the summit and you will admire one of the most incredible landscapes in the Iberian Peninsula.

If you want to take this tour, remember that a good fitness level and minimum climbing knowledge are mandatory.

So join me in this great 2-day ascent to the Naranjo de Bulnes. I will be happy to guide you through this amazing summit in Asturias. Book your place now!

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.
