The challenge of crossing the Pyrenees from sea to sea in 18 stages<\/strong>was born from the idea that anyone who prepares properly will manage to cross the Pyrenees, even if they believe that the time factor is an excuse to achieve this apparently unattainable dream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How did the idea of crossing the Pyrenees in 18 days come about?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the summer of 2020, after the encirclement and when the \"New Normality\" was established. I decided that I was going to cross the Pyrenees from sea to sea on the High Pyrenean Route<\/a><\/strong>. Due to the conditions at the time, I had enough free time to walk it at my leisure, before I was called back from work. So the time to cross the Pyrenees was no problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I called this crossing of the Pyrenees \"My Romantic Crossing of the Pyrenees\". The reason for the name was simple: to cross the Pyrenees from sea to sea, climbing as many mountains as I wanted. That crossing ended successfully in the Mediterranean in 53 days, with a total of 11 summits, 9 of which are over 3000 metres high, and that is why I made it romantic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2021 I published the story on YouTube and it was quite successful with the community of fans of the Pyrenees and especially \"The Trans-Pyrenees\". Since then I never stopped receiving comments and messages from people who dreamed of crossing the Pyrenees and the vast majority of them told me something in common \"I don't have that many days to fulfil my dream of crossing the Pyrenees from sea to sea\".<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have always enjoyed helping people and trying to motivate and inspire them to enjoy life, because there is only one life and you have to make the most of it. However, I couldn't just turn up at all the workplaces in my community and fight with their bosses to extend their summer holidays. So I spent several years thinking about it, until one day, I was inspired by the greats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
