Severity of the environment
2/5High mountain terrain, but with a well-defined main route and no notable exposure.

Conangles, Val d'Aran · Guided activity
One of the most accessible 3,000-metre peaks in the Pyrenees: a one-day ascent of the Tuc de Mulleres (3,010 m) from Conangles, through a granite valley dotted with lakes.
Activity overview
The Tuc de Mulleres, at 3,010 metres, is considered one of the most accessible 3,000-metre peaks in the Pyrenees: you go up and down in the same day from Conangles, with no night in a refuge, crossing a granite valley dotted with glacial lakes. With no technical difficulty on the main route, it is a great way to stand on your first 3,000-metre summit without the logistics of a multi-day trek.

Route at a glance
Objective route difficulty
MIDE is the Spanish hiking difficulty scale, rating a route from 1 to 5. This is a guide's estimate (there is no official MIDE sheet published for this particular route), based on the elevation gain, walking hours and lack of technical difficulty already described on this page.
Source: Ecotour estimate (AEGM / UIMLA-qualified mountain leader) using the MIDE method ↗High mountain terrain, but with a well-defined main route and no notable exposure.
The granite valley leading to the summit is visually clear and easy to follow in normal conditions.
A mountain path with no technical difficulty, though with stretches of uneven ground beside the lakes.
About 3 hours of ascent and a total day of about 7 hours, with around 750 m of elevation gain from Conangles.
What does MIDE mean? MIDE is the Spanish hiking difficulty scale: Environment, Route-finding, Terrain and Effort. It isn't an overall score: each number rates a different aspect and can change with snow, ice or bad weather.

Who'll be with you on this activity
Javier chooses the ascent variant (Conangles, Artiga de Lin or La Besurta) according to the group's meeting point and the conditions on the day, always favouring the main route with no technical difficulty.
As it is a one-day ascent, he plans departure times carefully to leave plenty of margin before the weather turns in the afternoon, something common in the high mountains in summer.

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.

Red deer rut
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

Red deer rut
We can only thank Javi for our outing: the day before the weather was awful and he advised us to postpone it, so we wouldn't climb up and not see the rut. The next day was wonderful, the views beautiful, and thanks to his experience and his technology we could see everything as if we were at the cinema. If we come back, we'll do it again. 100% recommended

Red deer rut
A really good person who knows the Val d'Aran very well. We had a great morning listening to and watching the rut with Javier, who will be your guide. On top of that, you learn a lot about the local flora and fauna of Aran.

Rafting
⭐⭐⭐⭐ An unforgettable week in the Val d'Aran with Ecotour (Javi) We've just spent a week's holiday in the Val d'Aran organised by Ecotour, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. The days were full of adventure, nature, excitement and fun. We'd especially like to highlight Javi, who was much more than a guide. His huge knowledge of the area, the wildlife, the plants and the history of the valley gave every activity extra value. You can tell he's a true nature lover and knows how to pass that passion on to the people with him. During the week we did e-bike rides, rafting, canyoning, a spectacular trek in Aigüestortes i Estany de Sant Maurici National Park with the climb up to Portarró, and we also visited some of the prettiest villages in the Val d'Aran. One of the most special moments was being able to see such emblematic species as the Apollo butterfly, a protected species that is increasingly hard to find. If we had to find a "but", it would only be the rafting, which surprised us least compared with the rest. Even so, we enjoyed the whole experience a lot. We'd also like to thank Javi for his great tips on where to eat in Vielha. He recommended restaurants with excellent value for money, where we could enjoy the valley's food without spending more than we needed to. All in all, a totally recommended experience for anyone who wants to discover the Val d'Aran in a different, active and authentic way. Thank you, Javi, for making this holiday such a special memory. We'll definitely be back!

Excellent experience with Javi on a snowshoe route. Vast knowledge about everything to do with the mountains. Going with him guarantees you'll enjoy your adventure 200% and come back with a smile. He works really hard. The best guide I've ever met. See you soon, Javi. Take care 👋👋👋

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.

Red deer rut
With Ecotour we did two organised rut outings last September. Although in the morning we didn't manage to see any deer (because, unfortunately, the wild boar hunt was on), the experience, both the trekking + observation outing and the afternoon observation, was great. Javier is a great professional who radiates friendliness and passion for his work, and he passes that on in everything he explains. I think we couldn't have found a better guide. A completely recommended experience with him. To repeat another year!

We went to see the rut with two little girls, and with Javi it was great fun and he was very attentive. For our next outing in the area, we'll definitely hire him.

Red deer rut
A great afternoon: Javi took us to an area where we could see and hear the rut, treated us to a small snack of local produce and told us about the life of the deer, the differences between antlers… You can tell he's passionate about his work. Thanks to the camera and lens he uses we could see them really well and watch their behaviour during the mating season. A great experience, highly recommended.

We did an outing to look for deer and listen to the rut. Javi is a very good guide, a person with a huge knowledge of the mountains and a great photography enthusiast. An experience to repeat.

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.
