Hiking takes on a special meaning and different dimensions when the land is covered with snow and you use snowshoes. Snowshoes make it possible to combine a peaceful activity with the discovery of a new territory, but with a sports angle with the challenge of passing over the obstacle of mountains of snow. Knowledge of the trails to be taken through the previous study and a map of the area which can be found in the tourism offices are the key to successfully experiencing this wonderful sport.
Tourism of Aran has created a map with snow based itineraries which are well marked in areas free of avalanche danger in some of the areas most representative of the Val d’Aran. In addition, the Avalanche Service of the Conselh Generau d’Aran is updated constantly with detailed analysis of the snow conditions. This information is uploaded to the web page of the Conselh. This is a pioneer service in Spain and Europe.
Discover some of the most emblematic corners of our territory with maximum security following these steps detailed above. In addition, you can receive the advice of one of our many specialized guides from the guide companies of the Valley. Not only will they provide additional safety material such as avalanche transceivers, probe poles, shovels, snow air-back, but will also offer detailed knowledge of the areas in which you travel.
