SKIMO: 1 WEEK ADVANCED PROGRAM

Are you looking to reach higher? Challenge yourself, rediscover your limits, progress in technique and enjoy yourself at altitude. Take advantage of the continuity of this program to quickly progress in your knowledge and skills in ski mountaineering.

Continue to learn how to progress on untreated snow, the different techniques of ascent and descent. Learn how to use the safety tools and their protocol (ARVA, SHOVEL and PROBE), essential in the snowy mountain. Handle with the tools of progression so necessary in the highest peaks.
What do we offer you?
  • Altitude: ±1100 m
  • One of the peaks with the best views of the south face of the Maladetas Aneto massif. In addition to having a unique panoramic view of the Benasque Valley and Castanesa due to its location. Without being a 3mil, it honours its altitude and its slopes offer options for all levels of ski mountaineering, with a descent of more than 1000 metres.
  • Altitude: ±930 m
  • Due to its location, this is a peak that, without being very high, offers a view of the Alba valley in the foreground, as well as of the Estos Valley and Lliterola. Behind it is the Perdiguero, which borders France. It pleases us with a progressive and not very difficult ascent and gives us the option of several descents for different levels.
  • Elevation difference: 1548 m+ and 1170 m-
  • It gives its name to the massif and was the largest until the Aneto was discovered. Its glacier makes it the best descent in terms of snow quality in the Pyrenees. Alpine for the last stretch to reach the summit, Maladetas corridor.
  • We will sleep at the Renclusa Refuge to link up with the summit the following day.
  • Accumulated difference in altitude: 1400 m+ and 1665 m-.
  • The roof of the Pyrenees. It requires us to reach the summit via the Mahoma pass, the last challenge before enjoying a descent of more than 1400 m straight to the Forau de Aigualluts. Then a short climb to the Antonio pass to go down to the Renclusa hut.
  • We will sleep at the La Renclusa hut to link up with the summit the following day.
  • Accumulated height gain: 1000 m+ and 1350 m-.
  • The easternmost 3,000m of the massif. Its ascent has nothing to envy the highest ones, as it is magnified by the black pine forest through which we will make a large part of the descent, being the shortest ascent of the week. Its arrival at the summit becomes more alpine the more snow it accumulates.
