I do organize adventure trips and several-day expeditions combining hiking and climbings. After ten years working in these lands as a guide, I set out my own mountain guide service company, Liébana Aventura. I try to keep a close relationship with my clients and share my knowledge, love and respect for this very rugged and at the same time beautiful environment. My certifications are: Sports technician II in mountain, climbing and cannyoning / Member of the Spanish Association of Mountain Guides No. 1107.

This never happened. The guide tried to change the date on 2 occasions and blamed it on Explore Share. I have no idea of the truth. I can’t even work out if I have been charged. But it didn’t go ahead and I feel messed around.

I climbed Aguja de Ostaicoechea in Picos de Europa.  Pablo is a very Professional Local Guide.

Unforgettable experience with Pablo!! He was very patient with me (It was my first time on traditional climbing) and made the guidance very fun. He transmits security in all his actions and under my point of view he represents what a good leader should have. After this he became my personal guide for every adventure I want to do. Totally recommended!!

Pablo is a great guide! Professional, good humour, he does lower the tension when you are in a tight spot allowing me to fully enjoy the climb while achieving goals above my comfort zone! I climbed with him Vía Casiopea (August 2019) and Arista pico Cabrón-Torrecerredo (august 2018), and I’ll repeat this summer!

I have visited with Pablo different emblematic places of the Picos de Europa such as the fantastic Naranjo de Bulnes through different routes. Normally every summer I have enjoyed rock climbing with his company. My experience with Pablo has been fantastic. He is a passionate guide of his work that always has safety by flag, very friendly and pleasant. I recommend 100%.
