Aigüerola

Aigüerola is a company that is focused on winter sports and also others in the high mountains of Lleida in the Cardós valley and Pla de Beret. With us you will discover a beautiful environment of fir trees, streams, high peaks, lost villages and many other elements that make up this region of the Pyrenees.

The way to enjoy the snow and the Pyrenean landscape must be chosen by you and can take the following forms:

• Skiing: We bring you the most technical and dizzying way to enjoy the snow through the ski resorts of Tavascán and Baqueira Beret. Tailor-made courses and equipment rental to try all the slopes you want.
• Cross-country skiing: It requires less technique than alpine skiing, being a calmer activity that allows us to enjoy more of the winter landscape around us.
• Snowshoes: With these elements hooked on our feet we can walk and climb the slopes of the mountains as if nothing had happened, having days hiking in the middle of the snow.

When the snow leaves us until the next season, the Pyrenean mountains continue to be an ideal setting for practicing sports in nature such asmountain bike routes and walking tours.

You will not lack anything at all, neither material nor the help of the guides who will provide a very pleasant experience for anyone who decides to discover the excellent conditions of this region of the Pyrenees.

Aigüerola takes you to the heart of the Lleida Pyrenees in the Tavascán ski resort. Pistes for beginners, intermediate level, difficult and black slopes where we teach ski classes for all ages.

The Aigüerola ski school is made up of expert teachers who, in daily group or individual classes, will teach you the main skills of skiing step by step.

The slopes for beginners will be the place where the little ones and those who are just starting to ski will ski. The blue and red slopes for the next levels and the black ones only for the most experienced.

You can use the skis and poles without any problem when teaching classes and, if you want, you can rent them to continue going down the slopes after classes.

We have an activity for you with which you can get lost on thepaths, forest tracks and mountains of the Lleida Pyrenees in the middle of winter and with everything covered in a thick white blanket. We are talking about a beautiful snowshoe trip, which is an excellent way to enjoy the high mountains in winter.

Feel very far from the noise and stress of the cities with a snowshoe ride near the Tavascán ski resort, in the Cardós valley and in the high mountain region of Pallars Sobirá.

Snowshoe excursions are very comfortable, their design helping enormously to prevent you from sinking in the snow. You will be able to make long journeys without too much effort.

From a short walk to a long walk looking for the peaks of the mountains that surround the valley.

It is an activity especially suitable for coming in large groups and thus sharing the experience together with the guide who will command the expedition.
