Description

Though the Aiguestortes National Park is one of 14 National Parks in Spain, it is the only one in Catalonia.

On this 6 day ski touring expedition, I would like to take you through this amazing park. I would also like to take you through the peaks of the Pyrenees that rise high inside of the Aiguestortes park. You will get ample time to admire the breathtaking scenery, while also having plenty of time to enjoy several exciting descents.

Every night of the trip, we will be staying in various mountain huts. Each hut will provide you with a comfortable place to relax and rest. Hence giving you the chance to recharge for the next day’s ski touring!

There is so much to see in the Aiguestortes National park that you will most likely find yourself torn between stopping and admiring the area versus enjoying the thrill of the available slopes. However, regardless of whichever option you choose, the experience you will have will be unforgettable.

Along with the numerous peaks of the Pyrenees you will get to see and ski on, including Besiburri Sud (3,017m), there is also an abundance of lakes as well. Many of the lakes are of a glacial origin, and are absolutely stunning to see. There is also a lot of wildlife you might be lucky enough to spot as well, including roe deer, ermine, marmots and chamois.

The Aiguestortes National park in Catalonia offers beautiful scenery and amazing skiing. So if you would like to experience this magnificent place for yourself over 6 wonderful days, send me a request. I will be happy to guide you.

I also offer a 2 day off-piste skiing course in the Piau Engaly ski resort in the Pyrenees.

We enjoyed this trip in the Alps very much!! It was an excellent introduction to mountaineering and the stunning peaks of the Alps massive. Our guide Martin made the full experience a succes; pushing us to the limits, keeping us safe at difficult rocky ascents, but also taking time to enjoy the scenery and the climb. Thanks a lot for the beautiful pictures too!

Excellent experience! Martin is a real expert guide and he managed to adapt the program even when the snow conditions were poor so that we still got to do everything we wanted. Very honest, reliable, and friendly guide. He's very education focussed so we came away from the holiday with a lot of new skills as well. Outstanding trip.

This was a great 4-day hut-to-hut ski experience in the Pyrenees. The national park of Aiguestortes is beautiful and we had a lot of snow. Martin is a professional and social guide. He makes sure that the trip takes place from a pleasant and secure way. Due to the weather conditions we couldn't do the climb to the Montardo and to the Ratera, but Martin organized some alternatives to enjoy the 4 days. We were an international group and could communicate with Martin in English.
