The Aneto Circuit
The Aneto Circuit

The granite and ice Aneto massif not only home to the highest peak in the Pyrenees, but also to the biggest glacier in the entire Pyrenean range, which itself is replete with three-thousanders and mountain tarns, making it a true Mecca for mountaineers. The circuit traverses all its slopes and will help you discover Aneto’s best kept secrets and you'll sleep in mountain huts, such as the 100-year-old La Renclusa mountain hut and the recently inaugurated Cap de Llauset mountain hut. Moreover, the Ballibierna and the Aneto peaks are two of the climbs that can be combined with the circuit.
