Yes, many people complete the GR11 on their own.<\/strong>But it's always safer to be accompanied and inform someone of your itinerary. A satellite communication and GPS tracking device such as Garmin's inReach can save your life and give your loved ones peace of mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Doing the GR-11 or any of the Trans-Pyrenees solo is possible. Obviously, in many stages we will move in high mountain areas, where we are in more or less unsafe terrain and changing weather. Being alone increases the risk, but if the preparation is adequate, our experience is in accordance with the route, and we follow certain tips that I will detail below, we can have more or less control over it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some time ago, we gave advice to a person who was going to do the GR-11, in 30 days and alone. <\/strong>Our advice was aimed at analysing whether he had the experience to face the challenge and help him with the preparation, the design of the stages (always trying to reach a place with services on each day) and also to offer him technological alternatives that would allow him to communicate at any given moment and minimise any risk, either in the event of an accident or any mishap. From GPS alternatives that also have satellite communication, as we recommend, to other options, with which the risk can be minimised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, there are many examples that we have been telling you here of solo Trans-Pyrenees in record times. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
