About the trekking
The trekking is a special and varied route through the Grand Canyon of Europe: the National Parc of Ordesa y Monte Perdido. The hiking is done on your own, according to our briefing. In summary the individual package will look like this:
Day 1
Briefing and transfer to the starting place of the trek: Torla, near the entrance of the national parc Ordesa y Monte Perdido. From here you take the bus (high season) to the parking lot in the national parc, where your first day trek starts. We hike over Faja de Pelay to the end of the Ordesa Valley passing cascades and massive walls that were formed by glaciers . On our way there's some nice picknick spots. The reward is there: after a day of hard work you can relax and have drink in Refugio de Goriz (2200mtr). Here you'll spend the next (two) night(s).
distance: about 10 kilometers
difference in altitude: 900 meters up
walking time: about 4 to 5 hours excl. breaks
Day 2 (optional)
An early start. Breakfast and a climb from Refugio de Goriz to the peak of Monte Perdido at 3355 mtr, where you'll arrive around noon. You'll be rewarded with 360 degrees of views and an "on top of the world feel". You'll descend back to the hut in about 3 to 4 hours, where you'll spend a second night. If the weather prevents going to the top, this day can be spend diferently.
