Description

The Pyrenees are an dazzling mountain range in Spain. These majestic peaks along with its mesmerizing valleys and enchanting towns, offer unrivalled breathtaking sceneries.

This area is beautiful all year round. However, it is during winter, that a pristine and fresh layer of snow covers it, giving it a special glow hard to compare. And there is no better way to explore this fantastic territory, than snowshoeing across it.

Also, the vastness of these lands ensure endless snowshoeing routes. We can visit many of the emblematic peaks of the Pyrenees, like Aneto. Then we can also snowshoe across iconic valleys like Andorra, Aigüestortes, Cerdanya and Vall d’Aran. But, some of the other excursions we can do as well are: Circ de Pessons, Puigmal Tossa Plana de Lles and Vall de Madriu.

We can do many of these trips in just one day. But, for many others we’ll need to stay at shelters or mountain huts. Thus, the itinerary of the trip is open. Moreover, it is a private trip. Therefore, the amount of time we stay, and the places we visit are up to you. It all depends on your previous experience and expectations.

Furthermore, all the activities proposed are playful, with educational goals, ensuring your safety and fun. So, prior to every departure, we’ll go over the use of beacons, probes and shovels. We’ll also review the day’s itinerary, learn how to read the environment, the use of the snowpack and its characteristics.

Dare to live an unforgettable snowshoeing adventure in the Pyrenees. Request to book this trip today and prepare for a wonderful experience.

Mountain Guide

Right in the heart of Catalonia, well connected with Barcelona, stands the Montserrat massif; a mountain with big natural, cultural and spiritual significance that rises sharply to 1,236 meters from the top of St. Jeroni.

I organize guided activities and courses of all levels, and offer the possibility to discover this fantastic mountain accompanied by a professional certified guide.

Along with all these activities in Montserrat, I can guide you over all the natural sites of Catalonia and the Pyrenees, a region with a wide range of possibilities for trekkers, hikers, climbers, etc.

I promote the use of sustainable transportation (train, zipper, funicular) and the development of activities that stimulate in participants a feeling of belonging to the places he or she visits. This perception of belonging, as we work with feelings and perceptions, can perfectly be assimilated to a sense of spirituality.

Our main activities are:
Spiritual values of Nature for private, groups or companies
Rock climbing
Hiking
Via Ferrata

It rained the day of my guided climb which made the trip less than I had hoped for. However, Xavi made it the best day he could and after we bailed we did some sport climbing where it was protected from rain.

Had a great day doing the highest vía ferrata in Spain ! Although we had difficulty with weather (storms), we cancelled the original day but moved it to the day after and although Fransec wasn’t available he very helpfully sourced me another guide called Oscar who was amazing, very knowledgeable, took us on a great trail and made sure we had a great time. Even recommended a great place for a swim after! Thank you Fransec and Oscar I will definitely be back and would recommend them to anyone.

Excellent guide. Time was limited due to weather but my guide had planned out the routes perfectly and specific to my climbing level I described, allowing us to do many routes in quick succession. I felt safe climbing with him and he provided all equipment except for shoes. Would definitely climb again with him in the future. This explore-share service was also easy to navigate and helped with communication with my guide.

Francesc was an exceptional guide. From the communication before the run, to his pacing, knowledge of the mountain and professional decision-making when a situation deemed it necessary. This adventure should be at the top of any visiting runner’s itinerary.
