What to expect

Description:
The climb to Verónica cabin is one of the best known and most popular routes in all of Picos de Europa. We offer you the possibility of doing it in winter where the roads are non-existent and the most beautiful route.

Itinerary:
We will meet at the lower station of the Fuente Dé cable car in our shop where we will give you the tickets to go up to the upper station.

Once there, we will be waiting for you in our store at the upper station to test and adjust the snowshoes and poles.

When you are ready, you will leave with our guide in the direction of Cabaña Verónica, crossing the frozen Lloroza Lakes, enjoying the views after passing the Vueltona and the tranquility offered by the highest refuge in the entire Peninsula.

Finally, and if we have time, we will go up to the Horcados Rojos pass where we will enjoy an impressive 360º panoramic view and from where we will be able to see peaks such as the famous Urriellu and even the sea if it is clear. ONE LAST!

Extra information:
This activity includes a cable car ticket, so we need at least one day in advance to be able to confirm that we can get the tickets.
