Guided Hiking in the Natural Park Aneto-Maladeta

Context The Aneto-Maladeta Natural Park, located in Huesca, spans 33,440 hectares of high mountain terrain, home to over 45 peaks exceeding 3,000 meters in elevation, including Aneto (3,404 m), the highest summit in the Pyrenees. This protected area stands out for its glacial formations and alpine lakes, where the wind carries the scent of thyme and cold stone. ">The Experience** You’ll take part in a guided hiking route that lasts between 1 and 5 days, depending on the chosen format. You’ll walk across rocky and snow-covered trails, crossing crystal-clear alpine lakes (ibones) and the Aneto glacier, where glacial retreat is clearly visible. The climb to Aneto requires technical gear and an experienced guide. The constant sound of melting glacial water accompanies every step. ">For Whom** This activity is suitable for hikers with medium to high experience and good physical fitness, aged 16 and over. It’s ideal for groups or teams seeking team cohesion in a demanding natural environment. Not recommended for those without prior high-altitude hiking experience or with limited mobility. ">Local Context** Traditional mountain refuges such as La Renclusa, a common base for the Aneto ascent, preserve the mountaineering heritage of the Ribagorza region. Local shepherds practice transhumance, and the community enforces strict regulations to protect and conserve the area’s natural richness.
