Description

Spend 6 days ski touring in the Pyrenees and get to know this beautiful region. Although not as popular as the Alps, this mountain range provides amazing ski touring opportunities. So let me be your guide!

The Pyrenees will surprise you with their majestic glaciers, imposing walls and remote valleys. We will spend 6 days on skins and skis, climbing imposing peaks and enjoying long, amazing descents.

We'll do day trips from a hut and also hut-to-hut crossings that will allow us to really get to know this beautiful region. We'll climb Aneto (3404m), the highest peak in the Pyrenees, or, depending on conditions, we could go for the Maladetas (3308m) and also the Posets (3375m) summits.

You need a good fitness level and intermediate ski touring abilities to join me on this amazing week. It's a great opportunity to get to know this lesser known region. I'm sure you'll enjoy the untouched nature and complete stillness!

If this ski touring program sounds like a good idea, contact me now to reserve your dates. I'll be glad to be your guide around the beautiful Pyrenees.

Don't have enough time? Then check out my freeride skiing days in Italy or Austria. These day trips are a great way to get away from the crowds!

Guido our guide was outstanding. Thoughtful and really sympathetic to the needs of our fairly large (8-strong) group.

An excellent trip to a beautiful location. The guide, Guido, was outstanding. Due to weather conditions we were not able to stay on the boat. Stayed in a hut instead which was very nice. Great skiing, amazing views, good food, great guiding and nice people. Highly recommend this trip. Cheers

poor weather limited the experience. We had hoped for a guide more familiar with the area, our first and last night were in a remote place requiring an hours walk. We only learnt about this on the day of departure. otherwise no problems
