Description
Looking for a snowboarding challenge in the Pyrenees? Then come and join me on an exhilarating 6-day program in the Tena Valley!
The Tena Valley is one of the largest and most populated valleys in the Pyrenees. Located in the Alto Gallego comarca, inside the Spanish province of Huesca, it is famous for its beautiful landscapes.
During this program, we will spend 6 days snowboarding through the beautiful Tena Valley. Our trip will start in Reservoir of La Sarra, in Huesca. We will explore the border area between Spain and France in the Pyrenees and go through the Balaitus and Vignemale massifs. Then, in the evenings we will spend the night in different mountain huts in the area. Please, take a look below for a more detailed description of the itinerary.
Also keep in mind that because this is a challenging trip, you need previous snowboarding experience and a very good physical condition. Participants should have knowledge about off-piste descents to join in as well.
Does this program in the Tena Valley sound exciting? Then do not hesitate and send the request to book your place. I will be happy to safely guide you on this adventure.

Fantastic climb! We were the only people climbing the normal route so we had the mountain to ourselves. Fede was great, highly professional, and he assessed the risks very well. Highly recommended!
