Tracks of the Aneto BTT

Tracks del Aneto is an impressive high mountain route in the heart of the Aragonese Pyrenees. You will pedal under the watchful eye of the Aneto (3,404 meters), the highest peak in the Pyrenees, while enjoying the wonders of nature in the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park.

DESCRIPTION

In Tracks del Aneto you will cross the high part of the Ribagorza region located in the heart of the Aragonese Pyrenees, where the Posets – Maladeta Natural Park is located, crowned by the Aneto peak (3,404 meters). You will ride through the most authentic and unspoiled corners of the Pyrenees, enjoying the valleys of Benasque, Isabena and Castanesa.

The 2-day route is the most endurera of all but the 3 and 4 stage versions are undoubtedly the most spectacular, with passes at more than 2,300m of altitude.

Ideal bike: Double suspension bikes are recommended for this route.

Tires: Versatile tires are the most appropriate, as you will find different surfaces: rocks, dirt tracks, loose stones, cobblestones, etc. It is best to use tubeless or inner tubes with liquid sealant.

Orientation: You are doing a mountain route and the weather changes rapidly, it is advisable to carry a windbreaker as a minimum. We recommend carrying a backpack with water, a multi-tool, and enough spare parts such as cameras, even a thermal blanket and a small first aid kit are never superfluous.

Best season: Spring and autumn are the most pleasant seasons, since summer is usually hotter. It is closed in winter due to snow.

Type of roads: Followed with Gps equipment, either with your own or we can rent you one. We deliver the track in GPX format. The organization also provides the participants with a map of the route with points of interest during the stages, restaurants, lodgings, etc.

Philosophy: This is a route that seeks to cover tracks and trails with little traffic and therefore technical, both uphill and downhill. Depending on your technique and strength, the route is 95% cyclable. There are some uphill and downhill sections that are only within the reach of bikers like Ismael Ventura, Milton Ramos, or Sergio Perez. It is quite a challenge to reach Aigualluts and have before us the mythical Aneto.

Luggage transport: Considering the technical nature of the route and altimetry, it is advisable to hire this service.

Mechanical assistance: The organization offers the service of support on route, in the briefing we explain the rates.

Provisioning: In the initial briefing we will explain it to you on the route map, but we advise you to carry a backpack with enough water and food to ride all day, since there are some stages that do not pass through inhabited towns.

EVALUATION

We recommend taking the 4-day option to enjoy the route to the fullest.

Passionate about mountains, heights and challenges.

Newcomers to mountain biking or people with little training.
