Description

Situated at the foot of the stunning Parc Natural del Cadí-Moixeró, Forat Negre is the perfect destination for canyoning in the Pyrenees!

Meaning "black hole", in Catalan, Forat Negre is a short drive away from the idyllic village of Vallcebre.

After meeting up near the church square at 9 am, we will transfer to the trailhead and make a scenic approach to the canyon, passing through meadows and small stands of forest as we go.

Once we arrive at the mouth of the canyon, we will get all of our gear on and begin rappelling, jumping (this is optional) and sliding down through the various strata of the canyon. The longest rappel will be  15 meters (50 feet).

At the end of our 4-hour excursion, we will hike back out of the canyon and return to the car.

No previous experience is required to make the most out of this trip and all the necessary skills can be taught in the canyon, making it the perfect adventure for families with older children.

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

I was looking for a local guide for a hike I was planning and came across Explore-Share. They seemed to have good reviews and so decided to give them a try. The experience was very positive and completely happy with their service. I will be using them again for next trip.

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.

Hello! I have been thoroughly impressed by the service and assistance that explore-share have provided the past couple years in helping to plan my trip to the High Tatras in Poland. I really appreciated the flexibility that they provided in allowing me to rearrange my trip twice owing to covid. They were responsive and communicative throughout. This trip was part of my Stag weekend celebrations and explore-share connected me with an outstanding guide in the form of Marcel - he was an excellent recommendation and we really enjoyed our guided hike in the High Tatras with him. Marcel was an outstanding professional, placed a high focus on preparing well and staying safe, and was also a great guy! Highly recommend. Many thanks and best wishes - Richard

Our first time with Explore-Share. An absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. Extremely good value, very well organised with attention to detail. We travel widely and this has by far been the best of experiences. Well done to all concerned. We are already looking at booking another trip!
