GEOROUTES PIRINEOS is a small company aimed at disseminating Pyrenean geology to all audiences in a rather scientific way. To do so, our experts use graphic material and try to make scientific language –which may sometimes be a bit stilted– more comprehensible for all. 

These explanations will allow you to know why there are fossils in the mountain, why continents are moving, how volcanos are formed and why rocks get folded?

Therefore, GEOROUTES has created a series of routes with different difficulty levels so that everyone can enjoy and learn about the planet we live on.
