Gustavo Ski Tours
We offer guided ski touring/mountaineering holidays in the "compact and bijou" Picos de Europa, Northern Spain.
Your qualified Mountain Leader, Mike Stuart, knows the area like the proverbial back of his hand and can help you explore, on skis, snowshoes or snowboards, this enchanting region. Using alpine or telemark touring bindings, we ski and climb the dramatic, limestone peaks of the central and eastern massifs of the Picos and highest points of the Cordillera Cantabrica. With the optional aid of ice-axes and crampons we can reach summits with sea views!
The Picos de Europa, split into three massifs - central, eastern and western - straddle the three provinces of Cantabria, Leon and Asturias and remain unspoilt, leaving us free to experience the natural beauty of this unique part of Spain.
