Description
Join me on this multi-adventure and local cuisine trip in Huesca, Spain and discover the unknown Spanish and French culture and nature!
Huesca is one of the less populated Spanish provinces of the country, and one of the richest in nature, medieval places and gastronomy. Located in the North East of Spain and in the border with France, it’s villages are full of stories about witches, smuggling, and heroic tells.
My proposal is to join me on a week full of new discoveries by travelling through the beautiful province of Huesca in Spain and the Aure Valley, in France. Surrounded by the highest mountains in the Pyrenees, participants will discover the hidden limestone and granite canyons in the lower parts of the valleys.
During this 8-day multi-adventure program, participants will be able to do some rock climbing in the charming municipality of Las Peñas de Riglos, in Spain as well as in the beautiful Cap De Long, in France.
So if you are ready to do some rock climbing, explore the nature and culture of this beautiful place while enjoying the delicious local food of these two amazing countries, request to book this trip and prepare to have an experience of a lifetime!

Passionée, experte et sympathique ! Un plaisir
Colin
Cecilia was the absolute best guide ever! We booked 3 days of climbing for my 20 year old son and his girlfriend and could not have asked for anything more. She is an amazing person who is beyond knowledgable, strong, inspiring and kind. Such an incredibly beautiful part of the world too. We were all sad to see it end and really a dream come true for my kids! Thank you Cecilia, we miss you already!
Megan
Cecelia is an excellent guide and climber. She was adaptable and encouraging, as well as friendly and knowledgeable about all things climbing. I am grateful for the chance to climb with such a pro.
Justina
Cecilia was a phenomenal guide! I highly recommend everyone check out Riglos with Cecilia because the rock quality was so unique and fantastic, and she found the perfect route at the level I requested (5.9). Cecilia is so knowledgeable, encouraging, and fun to climb with. I hope to come back and climb with her again some day!
