DESCRIPTION
The Pyrenean High Route is an extremely demanding route that covers more than 800 km and some astonishing 42,000 meters of elevation gain. Espiritu Nature has over 10 years of experience in this route and designed a unique route from mountain refuge to mountain refuge divided in 3 stages of 15 days each.

All food and personal equipment has to be carried by the client during the whole trip. Maximum group is 8. The journey is physically very demanding and technically moderate, an adventurous spirit is required. Fly in can be separately arranged to Bilbao.

The HRP trail was first walked by the Frenchman Frederic Parrot in 1817 in only 53 days. He called it the journey of his life; it will be yours as well! In this first stage we start with a dip in the Atlantic Ocean before we start our ascent over the greenish hills of the Basque land. Little by little the mountains become higher and steeper until we reach the heart of the Pyrenees in Gavarnie.

OUR VISION

A green planet full of wilderness areas. Increasing awareness of our role within nature while our own children educate their parents. The rural environment as generator of opportunities while interpretative guides are capacitated and committed, inspiring and transmitting sustainability values.

WILDERNESS: The most intact, undisturbed wild natural areas left on our planet, those last truly wild places governed by natural processes that humans do not control and have not developed.   “The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness”,  John Muir.

NATURE CONSERVATION: The protection of natural resources and landscapes, including biodiversity of plant and animal species. Taking in account historical, cultural and spiritual heritage.   “What we are doing to the forests of the world is but a mirror reflection of what we are doing to ourselves and to one another”,  Mahatma Gandhi.

ECOTOURISM: Responsible travel to natural areas that protect the environment and improves the well-being of local people.   “Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world”,  Gustave Flaubert.

OUR PRODUCTS: Primary or secondary education courses, nature youth camps, family experiences, survival trainings, nature expeditions, wildlife observation, profesional guide training, consultancy in nature conservation, sustainable tourism and socio-economic development.

The Spirit of Nature is always our main ingredient! Logo EspirituNature
