Activity description

Don't let winter hold you back and come ice climbing in the Ordesa y Monte Perdido National Park, in the Aragonese Pyrenees!

The Ordesa y Monte Perdido National Park, one hour from Jaca, Huesca and Benasque, in the Aragonese Pyrenees, is one of the first natural areas in Spain. It stretches along 4 valleys: Ordesa, Añisclo, Escuaín and Pineta and in them we find paths that lead us to discover wonders such as the Bosque de las Hayas or the Cola de caballo, perfect excursions for hiking. When the snow covers the Pyrenees, this national park takes on a magical landscape and opens up a whole range of winter sports such as cross-country skiing and ice climbing.

Have you ever climbed on ice? This is a type of climbing that adds a degree of difficulty to traditional climbing, as the ice makes it difficult to climb, but with the right equipment such as crampons, ice axes, ice screws and safety equipment, there will be no wall you can't climb! The Aguas Blancas instructors will guide you on this ice climbing in the Ordesa National Park and will choose the best mountain where to do the activity depending on the weather conditions, snow and the level of the participants. Among the options: Ordesa y Monte Perdido National Park, Cuello Arenas, Pineta... A half-day activity that despite its apparent difficulty, you only need to be a little fit and over 12 years old. Your instructors will adapt to your level depending on whether you are a beginner or an advanced skier.
