Standing at 3,403 meters, Aneto is the highest mountain in the Pyrenees. It is located in the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park in Spain, in the Benasque municipality, within the Huesca province, Aragon in Spain.
Also, within the park, there are many other majestic peaks such as the Posets Peak (3,371m), Punta d’Astorg (3,355 m), Pico Maldito (3,350m), Mount Maladeta (3,312m). But it is the Aneto Peak the one that stands out and is the most emblematic.
The Aneto Peak forms part of the Maladeta massif. On its north side, at 2,810 meters, lies the biggest glacier in the Pyrenees, with an impressive extension of over 100 hectares. Then, at the top of the mountain three more glaciers reside: the Aneto glacier to the north, Barracos to the northeast, and Coronas to the south.
Aneto maintains its surface in an almost impeccable conservation state. Making it one of the most wonderful places you can visit in Europe. Two days might just be enough to see all the wonderful things the Aneto peak has to offer. But I’ll show you all the highlights and my favorite spots. For instance, we’ll trek our way up through the Estasen Corridor. And I promise that standing at the top of Aneto will be an experience you’ll never forget.
Please note you don’t require previous experience to join this trip. However, it is a plus if you are used to mountainous environment.
So if you want to join this amazing adventure, please send me a request. It will be my pleasure to guide you to the summit of Aneto.
Do you want another type of adventure? I also offer this Trekking expedition across the Irati Jungle in Navarra.
More info
I recommend you bring: a 30-40 liters backpack, mountaineering boots, crampons, ice ax, helmet, carabiners, ropes, harness, gaiters, adequate winter clothing, gloves, hat, sunscreen and sunglasses, food and beverages.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
