Description

The Posets peak (3,371m) is the second highest peak in the entire Pyrenees. It is a remarkable mountain, and one that is well worth climbing.

The ascent and subsequent descent of the Posets peak can be done in a single day. However, if you would like to stretch out the experience, all you have to do is let me know and I will gladly accommodate you.

The beginning of the trip will involve a comfortable and scenic hike. During the hike you will get to visit and admire the Espigantosa waterfall. From there, we will make our way up to the Angel Orus hut (2,095m). From the hut we will follow a trail that crosses a lovely stream and enters into a usually snow filled valley. Within the valley we may have to use crampons as we make our way up to the foot of the Llardana tooth. After that, we will trek upwards for approximately 4 more hours to the Posets summit. After you’ve enjoyed the gorgeous views, we will descend back down to the hut. The descent should take approximately 3 hours.

The ascent of the Posets peak is not a very technical one. However, participants should be in good physical condition, as the terrain does shift during the climb.

If you want to enjoy a great climb in the Pyrenees, then this trip is for you. The Posets peak is a wondeful mountain. To reach its summit, all you have to do is send me a request. I would be happy to guide you.

What people are saying about Javier

Heming

Slightly changed plans, but I had a great trip to the Via Ferrata in Canfranc Estacion. Jorge delivered highly skilled guiding and was also a very pleasant hiking buddy!

Ryan

Juan Carlos was an exceptional guide and quite a great help at different points throughout the trip. When my primary guide couldn’t make it, Juan Carlos stepped up. He helped me get a more-fitting set of crampons for the trip, he helped along the route, and he accommodated when I asked to break, move faster, or divert. Many guides I’ve had in the passed did what they wanted. He respected my experience and my asks. This was a great trip, we pushed through the questionable weather, and made it to the summit.

I succesfully climbed Vignemale with David even if i had vertigo. David is very experienced and was able to bring me to the summit and back without a scratch. Thank you , amazing experience I highly recommend.

A HUGE thank you for all your help in the build up to our Monte Perdido attempt yesterday! Our guide Luis (from Javier's team) was absolutely brilliant and helped us reach the summit unscathed (despite the snowy conditions - which were apparently not ideal for amateurs!).
