Mountain hiking and trekking in the Aran valley is probably the main activity in the Himàlaia hotel Baqueira. When you follow in the steps of our guides, the aim of the activity is not only to reach a specific place, but also to gain maximum enjoyment from every step you take, relishing in the sounds of Nature in the Pyrenees, delighting in the silence of its narrow valleys and majestic peaks, and contemplating the beauty of its hidden natural landscapes.

The hiking and trekking excursions organised in the Aran valley are suitable for different profiles and conditions.  Excursions range in duration from 2 hours to an entire day. The routes are characterised by outstanding beauty and either follow flatter terrain or ascend up to 1,500 metres in order to contemplate the Pyrenean landscape from the mountain top. In any case, it's up to you to set your own goals and we'll be the ones to guide you through the adventure of discovering the Pyrenees.

You can do this activity with us every day -- all you have to do is put your name down one day in advance for the outings that we offer from the hotels through our Weekly Hiking Program. When you get to the hotel Himàlaia, ask for information on the outings and activities and put your name down. 

The excursions are led by an expert Himàlaia guide. Each day new routes are offered and the requirements and technical details for each of them are specified in the weekly planning that you'll see in the hall of each of our hotels.

Equipment required: comfortable clothes, mountain boots, small rucksack, a waterproof, warm jacket or polo, water, energy bars, sun cream, cap, personal belongings, and camera or camcorder (recommended).

What we provide: the option of reserving a picnic from the hotel one day in advance, consisting of mountain sandwich, ½ litre of water, fruit juice, fruit and energy bar.

Transport: Himàlaia jeep and individual cars.
