Pico Abadías (3,279 m) is one of the three-thousanders located within the boundaries of the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park in the Aragonese Pyrenees. To reach the summit, the normal route is usually taken, starting from Besurta or Renclusa and passing through the Portillón Superior. It is a relatively easy peak to conquer, always considering that we are in high mountain terrain, and the views of the South Ridge of Maladetas from its summit are spectacular. Climbing a three-thousand-meter peak in the Pyrenees is always a great activity, but... what if we climb it?

Do you want to climb a 3,000-meter peak?

Climbing a three-thousand-meter peak is the most elegant way to reach the summit of one of these massive granite formations in the Pyrenees. The "South Direct" (330m 6a) is one of the classic climbing routes par excellence in the entire Pyrenean range. Eight rope lengths over more than 300 meters will take us to the top of Pico Abadías.

The ascent is usually divided into two days. On the first day, we make the approach, setting up a bivouac at the foot of the south face of Abadías. This bivouac is already an experience in itself. We will enjoy the purest surroundings and rest to gather strength for the climb the next day.

The "South Direct" follows the south face of Pico Abadías on extraordinary quality reddish granite, with sustained difficulties ranging from Vº grade to 6a. One of the most spectacular moments of the ascent is reaching the "Gárgola", a natural balcony accessed once the 40 meters of the seventh pitch are climbed.

Excellent!

(Translated by Google) This has been an incredible experience. From the beginning, the instructor gave me confidence and security both in the explanations that were very clear, and then when practicing climbing. You end up feeling like you've been climbing for a long time, even if it's your first time. We will repeat.
(Original) Ha esta una experiència increíble. Des del principi el monitor m'ha trasmès confianza i seguretat tant en les explicacions que han estat molt clares, com desprès a l'hora de practicar l'escalada. Acabes amb la sensació de que portes molt de temps fent escalada, encara que sigui la primera vegada que ho fas. Repetirem.

We had an amazing experience with Southclimb. Santi, our guide, was friendly, patient and clear throughout our three days together. He kept things moving at a pace that was ideal for our level of experience, and made sure we were able to cover all the things we were looking for help with. We’re looking forward to coming back in the future for the next steps in our climbing journey. Thanks again Santi!

Excellent!

Santi cared about my overall experience in Spain as much as providing me a great climbing experience. Since I am an experienced climber, Santi encouraged me to climb hard at the same time as keeping safety top of mind. You cannot ask for a better guide.

Excellent!

I had an amazing time here. It was only my second time climbing outdoors and I didn’t really know what to expect. Santi, the guide, paced the difficulty of the routes really well so I was able to progress each day. This trip exceeded all my expectations.
