Description

Looking for an outdoor program that will take your breath away? Then this hiking trip in Cantabria is ideal for you.

The Collados del Asón Natural Park is situated in the Cantabrian Mountains, in northern Spain. Some of the characteristics of this beautiful natural area are its limestone outcrops and beech woods. This is where our program will take place.

I invite you to explore this magical setting through the Laberintos del Asón route. As its name suggests, this route offers a labyrinthine tour across the natural park. We’ll begin and end our trip in the Parking Collados del Asón and spend around 5 hours walking. While hiking, we’ll have the pleasure to contemplate the gorgeous panoramic views this area has to offer.

Although this program is technically easy, consider that it is important to be physically fit. We’ll cover a distance of 12 kilometers with an elevation gain of around 600 meters.

So, does this hike sound exciting? Then do not hesitate to send the request to book your place. I’ll be glad to guide you around this incredible park in Cantabria.

Additionally, you can take a look at this trek that I lead in Picos de Europa National Park, also in the Cantabrian Mountains.

Mountain Leader

AEGM-UIMLA Guide from Spain

I did my first steps as a mountaineer as a teenager in Madrid. But the desire to enjoy all the possibilities given by the mountains convinced me to move to Benasque valley, at the heart of the Pyrenees.

Along the years I did several winter and summer activities not only in the Pyrenees, but also in Picos de Europa, Sierra Nevada, Sistema Central...

One of my passions is to travel and discover new places and cultures, so I did climbing trips to other European countries, USA, Canada, Morocco, India, Nepal, Kirguistán... This trips gave me a priceless experience that made me grow as a climber, and set the stone to my formation as professional mountain guide.

I now live in Cantabria, and usually guide both in summer and winter in the Cantabrian range.

My guide, Fran, was top-notch. Super friendly and really knew his stuff. He was fantastic at tailoring our climb based on my expectations and what I could handle and - he nailed it. Also, he communicated in English really well. On the second day we chatted away like old friends. I had an awesome time and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a personalised climbing experience.
