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.

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.

(Translated by Google) I have done the initiation course and I liked it a lot, because of the content, relaxed atmosphere and at the same time serious in relation to safety. I will surely sign up for more activities!

We had an amazing first experience thanks to Southclimb. Santi was extremely kind, helpful and attentive - he's a super friendly and dedicated instructor. We will come again and we will definitely call him back and, of course, we would recommend his services to anybody who is looking for good vibes while learning and having fun.

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.

– Timothy DiGiulio
Excellent!

(Translated by Google) Santi and the entire team of professionals who work with him are incredible... if I had to choose one word it would be EXCELLENCE. transmits so much security, that you only receive fun and learning. He is warm, human, ready to solve any unforeseen event. Start the day with a guide and end with a friend. He also advises you before the activity, and also after... You can write to him a month later and he will help you buy a harness, or he will give you a discount on climbing shoes. Is incredible. He is very passionate, you can see that despite the 25 years he has been dedicating himself to this, he still has that spark, that enthusiasm, and he transmits it. I honestly recommend it.
(Original) Santi y todo el equipo de profesionales que trabajan con él son increíbles... si tuviera que elegir una palabra sería EXCELENCIA. transmite tanta seguridad, que tu solo recibes diversión y aprendizaje. Es cálido, humano, listo para solucionar cualquier imprevisto. Empieza el día teniendo un guía y terminas teniendo un amigo. Además te asesora antes de la actividad, y también después... Puedes escribirle un mes mas tarde y te ayudará a comprar un arnés, o te dará un descuento en pies de gatos. Es increíble. Es muy apasionado, se ve que a pesar de los 25 años que lleva dedicándose a esto, sigue teniendo esa chispa, ese entusiasmo, y lo transmite. Sinceramente, lo recomiendo.

Excellent!

(Translated by Google) I did the introductory climbing course and the experience was very rewarding. With no knowledge of climbing I felt accompanied and safe at all times. Santi is a great teacher and you can see both his passion and his involvement. Very motivational and understanding. Totally recommended even for people without knowledge or practice.
(Original) Hice el curso de iniciación a la escalada y la experiencia fué muy gratificante. Con nulos conocimientos de escalada me sentí en todo momento acompañado y seguro. Santi es un gran profesor y se le nota tanto la pasión como la implicación. Muy motivacional y comprensivo. Totalmente recomendable hasta para gente sin conocimientos ni práctica.
