Description

Welcome to this ascent program to the Aneto Peak. I will guide you and help you conquer its summit in just one day!

The Aneto is the highest summit of the Pyrenees. With an altitude of 3404 meters, it lies within the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park in the autonomous community of Aragon (Huesca, Spain).

The Aneto is part of the Maladeta massif and it is formed by Paleozoic terrains of granitic origin. In addition, on its north face lies the Aneto Glacier. It is the largest glacier in the Pyrenees.

However, it is in continuous regression as a result of the climate change. It may disappear in 30 or 40 years.

Therefore, the moment to climb this mountain and enjoy the Pyrenees’ landscape is now!

As for the itinerary, we will depart from La Renclusa Hut towards the Upper Portillón. In this way we can access the Aneto Glacier and from there, reach the Coronas Hills. Once here, we will be able to attack the summit after crossing the Muhammad Bridge, where we will use rope to overcome the section, if necessary.

The difficulty and technical level required for this adventure will depend on the time of year and the amount of snow. Anyway, it is essential to have a good physical condition since we must face an altitude change of 1530 meters in just a couple of hours.

So, if you find this program interesting please contact me now by filling out the form. Let’s conquer the highest point of the Pyrenees together!

About the guide

UIAGM/IFMGA Mountain Guide and Paragliding Instructor from Spain

I've been working as a mountain guide for the past 30 years. I've done ascents in the Pyrenees, Alps and Himalayas, including Chooyu (8201m), Ama Dablam (6820m), Mera Peak (6461m, 9 ascents), Stock Kangri (6153m, 8 ascents) and Lenin Peak (7134m).

I live in Castejón de Sos, in Benasque valley (Huesca), near the highest peaks of the Pyrenees. There I guide ascents and traverse during summer and winter, doing ski touring, alpinism, rock climbing and trekking.

I also organize trekkings and ascents in the Alps, India and Nepal.

My other passion is paragliding, which I do since 1986. I'm a tandem pilot, and organize programs in Spain and Nepal for pilots.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.

Hello! I have been thoroughly impressed by the service and assistance that explore-share have provided the past couple years in helping to plan my trip to the High Tatras in Poland. I really appreciated the flexibility that they provided in allowing me to rearrange my trip twice owing to covid. They were responsive and communicative throughout. This trip was part of my Stag weekend celebrations and explore-share connected me with an outstanding guide in the form of Marcel - he was an excellent recommendation and we really enjoyed our guided hike in the High Tatras with him. Marcel was an outstanding professional, placed a high focus on preparing well and staying safe, and was also a great guy! Highly recommend. Many thanks and best wishes - Richard
