Before setting off, stop for a minute and ask yourself whether you are fully prepared to safely ascendAneto<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Answer the following questions honestly to assessyour physical and technical ability, as well asthat of the other people who will be accompanying you on your trip<\/strong>.<\/p>\n If you or a large portion of your party<\/strong> answers no<\/strong> to these questions, you are not ready to climb Aneto. In this case, set a\u00a0smaller goal<\/strong>to help youtrain<\/a> before tacklingAneto<\/strong>, or consider hiring the services of a mountain guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u2714You have checked all the access routes to the starting points<\/a> and you know whether you can access them with your private vehicle or whether the roads are closed and you have to get there by bus.<\/p>\n \u2714You have researched the routes to the summit of Aneto<\/strong>, either up the north face<\/a> starting atLa Besurta<\/strong> or up the south face<\/a> starting at Puente de Coronas<\/strong>.<\/p>\n \u2714In the event that you decide to attempt the northern route and spend the night in La Renclusa<\/a> refuge, you have called to check rooms and availability<\/a> and booked your place.<\/p>\n \u2714Your clothes<\/a> and equipment are suitable<\/strong> for this kind of activity in the high mountains.<\/p>\n \u2714Your rucksack<\/a> contains everything you will need.<\/p>\n \u2714You have checked the weather forecast<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u2714You are aware that in order to climb up either of the faces ofAneto<\/strong>, you will need to take with you \u2013 and know how to use \u2013 crampons and an ice axe<\/a>,\u00a0regardless of the time of year (a helmet is also recommended).<\/p>\n \u2714You know about Puente de Mahoma<\/strong><\/a>, the section of ridge that you must cross before reaching the summit<\/strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u2714You are familiar with the constraints<\/strong> regarding\u00a0progression and signposts<\/a>\u00a0during the ascent.<\/p>\n \u2714You know in which areas there is telephone signal<\/strong> if you need to call 112<\/a> in case of an emergency.<\/p>\n \u2714You know the total and partial times<\/a> for your route.<\/p>\n In addition, during your ascent, you must always pay attention to your surroundings, changes in weather<\/strong> and the physical condition of your groupand equipment<\/strong>. This will help you foresee any incident and act in a safe and proper manner.<\/p>\n In this case, you should do more training<\/a> in order to prepare yourself for the demands of this climb by carrying out less demanding activities, or alternatively, you could hire the services of a mountain guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n At the end of the day, the most important thing is conquering Aneto safely!<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n\n
