Escuela de Esquí Leitariegos

The Leitariegos Ski School was created in 1986 in the Asturian resort of Leitariegos. Since then, this resort has offered courses and private skiing and snowboarding lessons for anyone interested in learning either of these two sports. The station is very small and familiar, and the school teachers are all qualified with a lot of experience who will help you progress quickly and in a fun way.

For the months outside of the snow season, the school also offers other typical outdoor leisure activities such as the following: canoe routes through whitewater and calm waters, hiking routes through Asturias and Cantabria , Archery for children and adults, caving expeditions through the caves in the area, climbing courses and outings in a climbing wall and on a natural wall, mountain bike routes, Zip Line...

You will have all the material you may need for each of the activities, provided by Escuela Leitariegos. In addition, you will be accompanied at all times by your instructors, professionals and graduates, who take care of the safety of the clients and help them in every way possible so that they enjoy the activity.

Asturias is a land of canoes. The Sella descent is known worldwide, but there are also many other places where you can practice this exciting sport that combines strength, endurance and skill. Leitariegos Canoeing Ski School offers you the opportunity to go canoeing in two privileged locations, the Villablino reservoir and the Narcea river. The Narcea is the second largest river in Asturias, and has several very fun stretches of whitewater ideal for canoeing. For its part, the Villablino reservoir is the ideal environment for calm water canoeing, where the important thing is to relax and enjoy nature and the rocking of the boat.

The activity takes place between the months of May and September, whenever weather conditions and the flow of the river or reservoir allow it. It is always done in the company of a qualified guide from the Leitariegos School. The technical material to be used (canoe, life jacket, paddle, waterproof bottle...) is also provided by the Leitariegos Ski School.

The Leitariegos Ski School Ski was created almost 30 years ago, in 1986. It immediately established itself as one of the schools in this Asturian resort, largely due to the quality of its human team and its philosophy based on giving students a sufficient level of skiing so that they can later practice on their own, feeling comfortable and safe on the slopes.

Currently they offer all types of ski courses, both for those who want to take private lessons with a teacher and those who want to join a group of skiers of a similar age and level to theirs. Everyone can give ski lessons regardless of their level, and this is precisely the main objective of the school.

On the other hand, the Leitariegos station is a small ski resort that is located halfway between León and Oviedo, less than an hour and a half by car from both cities. It has 7 marked and skiable kilometers divided into 10 slopes: a green slope, 4 blue slopes and 5 red slopes. The small size of Leitariegos makes this resort very welcoming and familiar, compared to other large resorts that can even intimidate novice skiers.

The Leitariegos Snowboard Ski School has been operating in the Asturian ski resort of Leitariegos for almost 30 years, since it was founded in 1986. Since then, thousands of students attracted by its philosophy of teaching, based on the idea that everyone can snowboard if they learn the correct techniques with trained and professional teachers.

In this way, they have several options from which you can choose:

- Private classes: These classes are for one or more students who book them all together and are normally groups of friends or siblings. The monitor is with the students all the time, pending their evolution and progression.

- Group classes: Group classes are also for groups, but unlike private classes, the schedule is already pre-established by the school. Groups of different levels are set up and the student joins the one that best suits his or her level and experience.
- Individual courses: unlike classes, the courses have a more specific program that is structured in an attempt to cover different aspects in a progressive way, in such a way that at the end of the course the student reaches a series of objectives that have been previously established.

- Weekend courses: They are the same as individual courses, but they are developed with a more intensive schedule since they are reduced to two days of the weekend.

Get to know Asturias on foot withLeitariegos Hiking Ski School.This region is one of the most beautiful in Spain, with incredible landscapes, green meadows and lush forests. It also has an important cultural heritage that will amaze you. You can learn all this and more with the alternatives that the school proposes:

- Educational itineraries: these itineraries focus above all on getting to know the most cultural aspect of Asturias, so visits are made to the different churches, granaries, brañas, etc. The guide will explain to you in a fun and entertaining way the history and secrets of each of these places full of history and tradition.

- Ecological itineraries: these routes run through the Laciana mountains and are for groups of a maximum of 5 people, precisely because they aim not to alter the environment. In the company of an expert, you will tour the Astuary countryside and follow the trail of animals such as deer, roe deer and chamois to, if you are lucky, be able to see them in their habit.

- Trekking: Trekking routes tend to be somewhat harder than hiking routes, especially because they last longer. Specifically, the Escuela Esqui Leitariegos treks pass through mountain landscapes without too much difficulty but that offer incredible views of the Cantabrian mountain range.

Although it may seem incredible to you, climbing is a sport that is not complicated at all if you are taught from scratch and you have trained teachers. It is also an exciting activity that will allow you to test yourself and overcome your limits. One of the best places to learn in Asturias at the Leitariegos Escalada Ski School, located an hour and a half by car from the cities of Oviedo and León.

They offer an introductory course that takes place in a huge climbing wall. Here you can learn all the basic techniques as well as certain theoretical notions that have to do with safety aspects and assembly and maintenance of the material. The climbing wall has different routes for all levels, so any climber, regardless of their level, will be able to make ascents that suit their experience.

In addition to this basic course, you can also take higher level courses, although in this case they are done on limestone rock walls. Thus, the climber can have the double experience of climbing in a climbing wall and climbing on a natural wall, being able to compare the differences between one modality and the other and seeing what sensations are felt in each one.

You can count on the help of the school's certified instructors for everything you need, who are in charge of the safety of the climbers throughout the activity.
