Description

This 5-day Pyrenees guided splitboarding tour will take you through a circular route, surrounded by impressive scenery and enjoying great powder rides!

The Pyrenees is a mountain range located in the border between France and Spain that goes from the Mediterranean Sea to the Bay of Biscay. With its highest peak being the Aneto (3404 m) this range is not as high as the nearby Alps, but it offers magnificent scenery full of lakes, valleys and forests.

This 5-day splitboarding tour will start from Panticosa, a small town in the north of Huesca province, and ride east to climb and enjoy the beautiful slopes of Serrato (2800 m), Tebarray (2900 m), La Gran Facha (3006 m), and Col des Mulets (2590 m).

Each day we’ll end up resting in charming mountain huts, where you’ll enjoy an unparalleled night, under thousands of stars and surrounded by nothing but snow and mountains.

One of the most appealing features of this tour around the Pyrenees is that we’ll find ourselves in complete loneliness, away from the crowded Alps, and enjoying unique natural landscapes.

So send me a request and come explore the Pyrenees together with a local certified mountain guide. I’ll show you all the best spots for you to enjoy an amazing riding experience!

If you are a skiera you’re also welcomed!

Martin provided us with a challenging weekend that stretched and developed our skiing a lot. He was very responsive to our feedback tailoring the programme as we went. Would absolutely book him again.
