Do you want to live a different type of adventure with your whole family? Then, join me on this multi-activity 5 day journey through the Benasque Valley. And discover one of the most beautiful parts of Spain on a very unique way. Children 6 and older are welcome, as there will be activities for everybody!

On the first day of our journey we’ll pick up our backpacks and trek through the Benasque Valley. Our goal? Reaching the Aneto Peak and its magnificent Glacier. This will be an easy and smooth hike that ends at the Forau de Aigualluts, one of Spain’s most dazzling spots! But the adventure won’t stop there. Later in the afternoon we’ll visit the Center for Interpretation of the Glaciers in the Pyrenees.

Then on tuesday, a whole new rafting adventure awaits. We’ll gear up with helmets and paddles to descend through the Esera river on inflatable rafts. And, after our water adventure, we’ll head to the Traditional Games museum, a perfect place for the whole family!

The next day we’ll ride a canoe on Eristre. We’ll pick a quiet part, where the ride will be quiet, but incredibly stunning. Then we will hike across the Conques Jungle.

On thursday we will take on the Ordesa canyons! So we’ll put on neoprene suits and head to Barbaruens, one of the most magnificent canyons in the Pyrenees. Here, we’ll enjoy fun toboggans and thrilling jumps. And we’ll get to swim in pristine pools of crystal clear water. Finally, we’ll end our day visiting Ainsa, an enchanting town in the Pyrenees.

To end our adventure, we’ll hike across the charming Cuenca del Moral botanic trail. And we’ll get to unveil secrets of geology, flora and fauna of the region.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

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.

Valeriya

You’re simply the best!!! :))) Explore-Share made everything easy and stress-free. Will definitely use again.

Joshua

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.

Cami

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.
