Description

Join me on this 4-day hut-to-hut trek in the heart of the Pyrenees Mountains, in the Benasque Valley in Aragon. The tour takes us around the Maladeta Massif, home to Aneto (3403m), the highest peak in the Pyrenees, and of the largest and best preserved glaciers in the area.

Our route runs through alpine terrain, sometimes steep and rocky, through the skirts of some of the most emblematic peaks, like Tempestades, Vallibierna and Maladeta, among others.

For four days, we will be hiking through forests, high-mountain lakes areas, Ibones, and landscapes that will immerse ourserlves in the heart of the Pyrenees. It is a wild environment that offers high mountain nature in its purest form: flora, fauna, lakes, glaciers, geology, enjoying a unique trek!

Along these days, we will be staying overnight in mountain huts: Cap de Llauset, Conangles and Renclusa. Bear in mind this is a medium diffculty level trek, but it is physically demanding, so you need some mountain trekking experience and a good fitness level to join it.

So if you are in for this amazing trek, just send me a request and book your place! I would love to guide you on this hut-to-hut trek. You can either join me on the Open Group date or private guiding. 

You could also have a look at this hut-to-hut trek in the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park.
