Hut to Hut Hiking Pyrenees

Hut to Hut Hiking Pyrenees. In the Pyrenees, hut to hut hiking is a real treat. The Pyrenees are an incredible mountain range and the mountains are steep and rugged. There is a lot of exposed rock and the formations are simply spectacular. The range forms the natural border between Spain and France and it separates the Iberian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal) from continental western Europe. Additionally, the landlocked country of Andorra is also found in the Pyrenees and it borders both Spain and France.

The Pyrenees extend approximately 500 km from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea and reach heights of over 3000 m (~10,000 ft). Don't be fooled by the relatively low altitude compared with other mountain ranges in the world. The Pyrenees are a dynamic range with enormous topographic prominence. Nearly every mountain feature is found in the Pyrenees including glaciers.
