Description

Situated in the southernmost reaches of the Catalan Pyrenees, Barranc de Boixols is the perfect spot for a half-day canyoning adventure!

Starting from the idyllic village of Boixols, we will head to the trailhead and make a short, but scenic approach through forests and meadows to the mouth of the canyon.

Once at the edge of the Barranc de Boixols, we will put on our gear and begin rappelling, jumping (this is optional), sliding and water trekking through the canyon.

All of the necessary skills and techniques to successfully rappel can be taught at the start of the trip, making this the perfect activity for participants of all levels.

As we climb, jump and swim through the canyon, we can also talk about the ecology of the area and learn a little bit about this stunning part of Catalonia.

When our four hours is nearing an end, we will make a 30 minute ascent out of the canyon and back to the trailhead, where we will change into dry clothes and return to Boixols.

So what are you waiting for? Book now for this fun and exciting half-day canyoning adventure in Barranc de Boixols!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
