The Maladeta Peak is a mountain summit very close to the Aneto Peak. It is located in the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park, in the province of Huesca, Aragon. On its north slope lies the Maladeta Glacier with a total surface of 37 hectares.
It is also the sixth mountain above 3000 meters that forms the massif. Its top has several peaks like the Mir (3185 m), the Sayo (3220 m) and the Cordier (3254 m).
As for the itinerary, we will depart from La Renclusa Hut in direction to the Maladeta Glacier. We will leave the Upper Portillon in our right, moving towards the vertex of the glacier. From there we will ascend through the edge to finally reach the summit.
During the ascent we will gain an elevation of 1400 meters. The round trip will take about 9 hours. It is a mountain of easy-intermediate difficulty. That means that it is only necessary to have a good fitness level.
Please get in touch with me if you want to make your reservation or ask me your doubts before get decided. It will be a honor for me to be your guide!

Mountain 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.
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
