Overview
Snow-dusted peaks, plunging valleys, and centuries-old alpine villages make the Spanish Pyrenees irresistible for a WT hiking adventure. We explore from the jagged limestone peaks of Ordesa National Park, nestled along the French border, to Catalonia's Aigüestortes National Park, with its crystal-clear lakes. We'll hike to craggy ridges where mountain goats scramble, explore valleys where the ancient Aragonese dialect is spoken, and ramble the back lanes of stone-built Pyrenean towns. Along the way, our expert Trip Leaders introduce us to Basque, Aragonese, and Catalan culinary specialties. Our final hikes cross the high lakes of Andorra and the Catalan Pyrenees, with a wonderful finish in the renowned cultural hub of Barcelona.

Itinerary

Expand All Days
From the famous Basque city of Pamplona, we head out to the idyllic Ansó Valley for a hike from the medieval village of Ansó to tiny Siresa, with its imposing 11th century monastery. Ordesa National Park, crown jewel of the Aragonese Pyrenees, is a spectacular world of sheer 10,000-foot peaks festooned with waterfalls. Our trail in Ordesa brings us 360-degree panoramas as we reach the Cola de Caballo, a cascade just below the sheer face of Monte Perdido.
Starting right from our hotel, we hike along the Ara River, then enjoy an afternoon in medieval Aínsa, whose old quarter preserves the ancient traditions of the Pyrenees in its old towers and stone houses. In Aigüestortes National Park, we explore a glacial landscape named for its meandering streams (aigües tortes means “twisting waters”). We cross the park from west to east on our hike over the Portarró d'Espot (7,326'), the highest point on our trip, with a descent to the glacial lake of Sant Maurici.
In Andorra, the tiny principality nestled in the mountains between France and Spain, we hike past crystalline alpine lakes in the high Cirque des Pessons, with a picnic of fine Catalonian cheeses and local home-cured pork salumi. After a pastoral hike amid the sounds of sheep bells to the bucolic Catalan village of Cava, we head to Barcelona for our Farewell Dinner. Depart on Day 9 or extend your stay in Barcelona.

This trip is rated Level 4, Moderate to Strenuous, according to our trip grading system. You will need to be comfortable hiking 12 miles a day and being on your feet for up to 7 hours a day. While no climbing or mountaineering experience is necessary, you will need to be able to keep up with the moderate but steady pace of the group as there are no alternative hiking options available. Trail conditions, weather, and the group's level of fitness can affect hiking times and pacing.

The terrain can be rugged with steep ascents and descents and rough, rocky trails with uneven surfaces including downhill over loose scree. While we are not rock climbing, there are sections where you will need to use your hands to traverse over large stones, so good balance and prior hiking experience are necessary.
Temperatures are likely to be in the 70s°F during the day, with cool breezes and occasional rain. At night the temperature will drop quite a bit, depending on the altitude. In general, we expect mild conditions, but cold weather and rain can occur at any time, so it is necessary to bring raingear and warm layers with you on every hike.
We'll stay in a collection of charming and historic mountain inns and hotels. Since they are often in historic buildings, the rooms are not always of uniform or international size. Our leaders do their best to assign rooms in a fair way so that all participants experience an equal advantage throughout the trip as a whole. Single rooms can be requested but are not always available, due to the limited space in the hotels. If you prefer a single room, please make your request as early as possible.
Lunches will be at local taverns and restaurants or picnic-style along the trail, with cheese, fresh vegetables, salami, copa, ham, fresh fruit, Spanish chocolate, and local breads. Dinners will be in taverns and restaurants which offer plenty of opportunity to sample the best local dishes and wines. Please note that in Spain, the dinner hour is considerably later than what it is in the US. We do our best to secure early reservations for our groups, but most often the evening meal will be at 8:30 pm.
Our van will transport the group's luggage, so you only need to carry a daypack for items you need for the day (rain gear, sweater, camera, water bottle, etc.). Trip members are always free to skip a day's hike and travel to the next destination in the support vehicle (or remain at the hotel if we are not transferring that day).

Trip Levels
With more than 200 different adventures to choose from, we want to help you find the trip that’s right for you. Our Trip Level system ranks each trip in two ways: a number rating from 1 to 6 according to the activity, and general travel rigors. 1 is the easiest and 6+ the most difficult—see descriptions below for explanations of each number. A plus (+) sign means the trip is a bit more strenuous than other trips of that level. The detailed explanation of each trip—below the bar with the number rating—is perhaps more important, specifying activities, altitudes, hiking, and travel conditions. The Detailed Itinerary, available by download or mail, gives further information. Our Area Managers can also answer questions and guide you to the trip that best suits your interests.
Level 1 – Easiest
Non-camping journeys, optional walks, little elevation gain or loss.
Level 2 – Easy to Moderate
Hotel nights and/or safari-style camping, hikes of two to four hours on some days. Other physical activities are sometimes included, such as optional sea kayaking.
Level 3 – Moderate
Half- to full-day hikes (3-6 hours) over rolling countryside on most days, occasional steep trails. Many of our hotel-based walking tours are in this category, as are our snorkeling adventures.
- Tuscany & the Cinque Terre
- Argentina: Hikes and Estancias of Patagonia
- Palau Snorkeling & Sea Kayaking
- Some trips with minimal hiking but rugged travel conditions or long drives, such as Tribal Ghana, Togo & Benin, are Trip Level 3.
Level 4 – Moderate to Strenuous
Full-day hikes (4-6 hours), mountainous terrain, significant elevation gains and losses (hiking up or down as much as 3,000 feet) on many days. Altitudes no greater than about 10,000 feet.
Level 5 – Strenuous
Full-day hikes (4-8 hours), mountainous, steep terrain (hiking up or down as much as 3,500 feet) on many days. Trips with hiking at average altitudes of 10,000 to 12,000 feet are in this category.
Level 6 – Very Strenuous
Full-day hikes (5-8 hours), mountainous, steep terrain (hiking up or down as much as 3,500 feet) on many days. Most hikes take place at altitudes above 10,000 feet, with some days ascending as high as 18,000 feet.
