Andalucia Medal

Accompanied by Mayor of Estepona, David Valadez, Estepona sportswoman  Ana Gómez Valadez was awarded the Andalucia Medal last month at a ceremony at the Malaga Provincial office of the Junta de Andalucia.

 

Ana Gómez Valadez, one of Spain's top women climbers was born in Estepona in 1971 and has climbed some of the highest and toughest summits on most of the continents, including the  Ecuadorian Andes, the Venezuelan Andes, the Alps, the Atlas and the Himalayas where, as part of an 2008/2009 Andalucian women's expedition, she planted the Andalucia flag at the summit of Manaslu.

 

She had previously been awarded the Andalucia Sports Prize in the 'Best Team' category for her part in that expedition to the Nepalese range.
