Description

Looking for an outdoor program that will take your breath away? Then this hiking trip in Cantabria is ideal for you.

The Collados del Asón Natural Park is situated in the Cantabrian Mountains, in northern Spain. Some of the characteristics of this beautiful natural area are its limestone outcrops and beech woods. This is where our program will take place.

I invite you to explore this magical setting through the Laberintos del Asón route. As its name suggests, this route offers a labyrinthine tour across the natural park. We’ll begin and end our trip in the Parking Collados del Asón and spend around 5 hours walking. While hiking, we’ll have the pleasure to contemplate the gorgeous panoramic views this area has to offer.

Although this program is technically easy, consider that it is important to be physically fit. We’ll cover a distance of 12 kilometers with an elevation gain of around 600 meters.

So, does this hike sound exciting? Then do not hesitate to send the request to book your place. I’ll be glad to guide you around this incredible park in Cantabria.

Additionally, you can take a look at this trek that I lead in Picos de Europa National Park, also in the Cantabrian Mountains.

AEGM-UIMLA Guide from Spain

I did my first steps as a mountaineer as a teenager in Madrid. But the desire to enjoy all the possibilities given by the mountains convinced me to move to Benasque valley, at the heart of the Pyrenees.

Along the years I did several winter and summer activities not only in the Pyrenees, but also in Picos de Europa, Sierra Nevada, Sistema Central...

One of my passions is to travel and discover new places and cultures, so I did climbing trips to other European countries, USA, Canada, Morocco, India, Nepal, Kirguistán... This trips gave me a priceless experience that made me grow as a climber, and set the stone to my formation as professional mountain guide.

I now live in Cantabria, and usually guide both in summer and winter in the Cantabrian range.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
