At first sight

Discover the fascinating world of snowshoes while enjoying the silence and the spectacle of the snowy forest in a lovely scene as the National Park.

Active Ecotourism is the new format we have designed for snowshoeing. The scenery of the National Park, and the Pyrenees in general, allow us to live many experiences during the winter. Being snowshoes a very good option to discover this wonder of our geography.

The National Park of Aigüestortes and Sant Maurici’s Lake is one of the fourteen national parks in Spain and the only one in Catalonia.

The usual access to the heart of the park is made by the two historical entrances: Espot (Pallars Sobirà) and Boí (Alta Ribagorça). In both entrances we organize snowshoeing trips, being our meeting point the park’s houses.

Active snowshoeing ecotourism is not a conventional way out. Its difference resides in our guide, Txema Arteta, expert in levelgia and avalanches prediction with international training. This feature advances the trip’s intensity due to moving through the forest, glacial valleys or snowy lakes; learning the types of snow there are, how the wind changes the landscape or how we perceive the warning signs, discarding myths about the mountain and a lot of more curiosities.
