- Walk right around the Maladeta-Aneto massif in 3 days, without setting foot on the glacier.
- Two nights in high-mountain refuges: the Renclusa and Cap de Llauset.

- Descend on the last day past the glacial lakes of Vallibierna.
Activity overview
Aneto Circuit: 3 days, 2 refuges, a whole massif
Instead of heading straight for the summit, this trek walks right around the Maladeta-Aneto massif: three days, two nights in refuges and a pass of almost 2,800 metres in between. It is the way to get to know the setting of the highest peak in the Pyrenees in depth, with an Ecotour mountain leader, without needing glacier experience.
From €359 per person (early booking; €399 last minute) for a group of 4-8 people, with guide, insurance and half board in both refuges included. Transport and packed lunches are not included; confirmed on request depending on dates and the actual group size.

Before you book
Is this trek for you?
You do not need glacier or climbing experience, but you do need to be genuinely used to walking several days in a row with a rucksack and sustained ascent.
Great fit
You'll love it if…
- You already do 6-10 hour mountain hikes and can string together three consecutive days of effort.
- You want to get to know the Maladeta-Aneto massif without taking on the technical demands of the glacier ascent.
- Life from refuge to refuge appeals to you: dinner, bed and an early start, two nights in a row.
- You value a mountain leader who sets the real pace according to the group and the conditions on the pass.
Worth a second look
It might not be for you if…
- You want to summit Aneto: this trek circles the massif, it does not climb to 3,404 metres.
- You have no experience of walking several days in a row with a loaded rucksack.
- You need the route guaranteed exactly as planned: the Salenques pass may mean adapting the plan because of snow or weather.

Who'll be with you on this activity
Javier Gil
On a multi-day trek, the decision that matters most is not the one on the first day, but the one each following morning: how the pass looks at dawn, how much energy the group has left, whether it is time to set off earlier than planned.
The Ecotour guide leading you on this trek assesses the real state of the Salenques pass before tackling it, and adapts the pace of the three days to the group, not the other way round.

Caring for the environment
Good practice
In the mountains
- You carry out all your rubbish, including food waste, and do not cut the zigzags of the path.
- You watch wildlife from a distance, without approaching or feeding it.
- You do not pick plants or take stones or anything else from the environment.
At the refuge
- You respect quiet hours from 21:00-22:00.
- You use water sensibly: in a high-mountain refuge it is a limited resource.
- You follow each refuge's rules on footwear, lockers and dining room times.
Frequently asked questions
What people ask us
01Does the Aneto Circuit go to the summit?
No. It is a circular trek around the Maladeta-Aneto massif, without crossing the glacier or reaching the summit. To climb Aneto, see our separate guided ascent.
02Do I need technical glacier experience?
No, this trek does not cross the Aneto glacier. You do need to be fit enough to string together three days of 6 to 10 hours, and be used to walking over boulders and scree on the Salenques pass.
03Which is the toughest stage?
Day two, between the Renclusa and Cap de Llauset: 11.3 km with more than 1,100 m of elevation gain and the crossing of the Salenques pass, close to 2,800 metres.
04How much does the trek cost?
From €359 per person with early booking (€399 for last-minute bookings), for a group of 4 to 8 people. It includes a mountain leader for all three days, insurance and the two nights in refuges on half board (dinner and breakfast). It does not include transport to the meeting point or packed lunches.
05When can I do it?
From June to September, with July and August the most settled window. In years with late snow, the Salenques pass can still hold patches of snow even in June.
06How many people are in the group?
It is organised for a group of 4 to 8 people with a mountain leader for all three days of the trek.

Snowshoeing
More than a guide, a friend!! His level of knowledge about the mountains, snow, animals and everything related to the mountains is exceptional. My experience with him on snowshoes: 15 out of 10!! A professional and one of those people who only give... Personally, I didn't meet a guide, I made a friend. Professionally... one of a kind... I'd always recommend him, and I already do. A hug, Javi.

Snowshoeing
We did a snowshoe route and the experience was heartwarming. Javi as a guide doesn't just pass on his love of the mountains, he teaches you to love and understand them; on top of that he's one of the group, he's your friend and he cares about every single person in it.

Morocco
I went on a trip to Morocco with Ecotour and Javi: 4 people and two specialists in snake spotting and rescue. Honestly, the number of different species we saw was surprising, from cobras to vipers and grass snakes, very big desert lizards, geckos and so on. It was non-stop, including getting into Western Sahara, with a group that from minute one felt like we'd known each other all our lives, great vibes and lots and lots of passion for animals and sharing. I learned a ton of things and was able to handle these animals in complete safety. I'd also say that I never felt we were going through tourist spots, quite the opposite. The places we passed through hadn't seen outsiders for days. That means that, besides everything being cheaper, you feel you've really got into the heart of a trip. One hundred percent adventure; more than a tour, it was a trip among friends passionate about animals. Thanks for everything, Javi, and for being there looking out for everyone. A big hug, and I'll do it again as soon as I can, no doubt. 🫂🙌

Red deer rut
A wonderful experience in a luxury setting. We got in touch with Javi after finding him online and it was a great decision. He's a young guy, passionate about his work and about nature, and it shows. He explained so many things about the rut and the surroundings, and brought samples to show us how animals are tracked, always with respect and without disturbing their habitat. He also took loads of souvenir photos, both of us and of the animals, which we really appreciated. I loved the equipment he uses: he has a screen that attaches to the camera, so we could all enjoy the views without needing telescopes. Thank you so much, Javi, for the experience. You're a truly lovely person.

Without a doubt an unforgettable experience. Several companies offer the rut, but not like this one: his knowledge of the subject, together with the technology he uses, guarantees a complete outing and lets you enjoy the activity to the fullest. 100% recommended
