Full description
Who said that snow was only for skiing?
Discover the Ordesa Pyrenees on a private route that combines the thrill of a 4x4 with a snowshoeing excursion. Build igloos, laugh and share a family adventure full of fun, nature and mountain landscapes.
An experience of approximately 5 hours, designed for young and old alike.
What we will do
You will meet 10 minutes before the agreed time at the meeting point in Escalona, Huesca. Your guide will be waiting for you there, who will accompany you throughout the experience and adapt the route to your pace and curiosity. After the introductions, you will get into the 4x4 vehicles and start your adventure towards the heart of the Ordesa Pyrenees.
The exact area will be chosen according to the weather conditions, as you will access places that can only be reached by 4x4, such as the Añísclo sector, the upper Pineta valley, Tabernés or the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park area. All of them offer spectacular landscapes, with views of peaks over 3, 000 metres high and glacial walls that will take your breath away.
Along the way, the guide will tell you interesting facts about nature, history and life in these mountains. Once you arrive at the chosen point, always a sunny and safe place, you will put on your snowshoes for a quiet walk in the snow and enjoy the surroundings.
As this is a family route, fun for the little ones is completely guaranteed. You will play in the snow, build shelters or even a small igloo, and learn about mountain safety in a fun way. As a team you will learn how to use rescue equipment like real mountaineers, in a fun search game in which each find is celebrated as a treasure found under the snow.
The time will fly by with laughter, postcard landscapes and shared moments that will remain in your memory. When the sun begins to set behind the mountains, you will get back in the 4x4 to return with the feeling of having experienced a great little expedition as a family.
The whole experience lasts approximately 5 hours, including preparations and travel.
