Its climate and water levels make the Spanish Province of Huesca a canyoning mecca. Join me for this tour and explore the area learning the basic techniques of this fabulous sport.
Huesca has several areas for canyoning, like Torla and Escalona, near the Ordesa National Park, the Valley of Benasque and the wonderful Sierra de Guara. I will design a itinerary depending on the day you want to stay in the area.
The Sierra de Guara is an amazing mountain massif in the Aragon region. Here we will find the Sierra y Cañones de Guara National Park, stretching approximately 40 kilometres from east to west. You will enjoy a real adventure in clear pools and amazing waterfalls.
Canyoning is a wonderful and exciting activity. Along with the fun you will get, in this trip my goal is teaching you some of the basic skills: abseiling, oppositions, slides, safety techniques, jumping, and much more.
So, if you want to explore this amazing canyoneering area under expert guidance, please contact me! Let my guide you through the amazing canyons of Huesca, Spain.

I am Spanish, born in Pau. I was raised following the rhythm of canyoning seasons of Sierra de Guara since the 80's, where my father, together with other pioneer guides, put together the first guide companies.
I have been a privileged witness for more than 30 years and I love this sport. I have seen it progress, the evolution of the materials and techniques, the spread around the world, and unfortunately the massification of some of them, victims of their own success... I am nevertheless interested in offering an approach of canyoning guiding that is at the same time simple, transversal and complete. Indeed, beyond safety, the sporting aspect, the commitment, the techniques and the pleasure of adrenalin, I consider it important to take our time, learn and marvel all our senses (and what can be better to do so than such a varied activity combining so many elements in sublime locations), and of course respecting the vulnerable environment that welcomes us...
My favorite canyoning sites are Sierra de Guara, the Pyrénées, Morocco, Mallorca, Slovenia and Italy, but there are also sublime spots in France, New Zealand, Latin America... and all those in my to-do list that I have yet to discover.

I really enjoyed my trip and I think I will remember it for a long time. That is untill I go back and make some new memories:) Which I am sure (and hope) will happen. I learned a lot new things there. Everyone in my group were really nice and friendly people,the only disadvantage for me was that I don't speak french and only a few of them knew some English. So of course it would have made my trip even more enjoyable if I could communicate to everyone freely, including the guide. But even considering that we did not spreak the same language I was very happy with the guide. He gave us only things he knew we could do and made sure we felt safe at all times. He definitely did a good job on that. I have been telling everyone about this trip and saying it was one of the best I had..
