About As

Juan Herrera Expediciones & Trekking

E&T is a small, employee-owned company of mountaineers, founded 17 years ago.

Every detail of the trip organization is supervised by us in person.

Our coworkers have been chosen considering not only mountain expertise but commiment to customers.So as to guarantee the quality of our services no crowd groups are programed -12 maximum –

Since the mountains are fragile ecosystems, our company feels responsible for the environment at natural reserves as well as on the other mountain areas explored. We make sure that our groups do not light fire using native flora, do not damage flora and fauna, do not extract fossil or archeological objects, do not use soap or detergent in water sources, and dispose properly the rubbish.
