Description

Are you looking for a beginners outing in a beautiful natural place? Then don’t miss this fantastic opportunity in Catalonia. Come with me on this half-day program and discover the beauty of Rocs Blancs peak (2,439 meters) and its surroundings.

Our trip will begin at 9 am in the Vallter 2000 ski resort but we’ll go in the opposite direction from the resort. With our snowshoes on, we’ll walk along a beautiful stream and get to Portella de Mantet, a mountain col from where we can contemplate fantastic views from the Canigó Massif. If the weather allows it, we’ll be able to see the Montserrat Massif and even the sea. Afterwards, we’ll keep hiking to Rocs Blancs and then return down the same path.

This program is perfect for beginners. That’s why it’s not mandatory to have any prior experience. This is an ideal opportunity to get started with this activity and acquire experience.

Contemplate the amazing snow-covered peaks of Rocs Blancs while you enjoy snowshoeing. Get in touch with me by sending the request to make your reservation!

Also, you can take a look at this program that combines snowshoeing with a hot spring canyon in the French Cerdagne. Check it out!

Trekking Guide

I'm a certified Mid-Mountain and Canyoning guide and a certified UIMLA Leader. I'm also a member of the High Mountain Catalan School (ECAM).

I have been working as a Mid-Mountain and Canyoning guide since 2008. My love for the mountains began at a very young age, as I grew up in the Pyrenees.

This passion eventually took me all around the world, including the Himalayas, the Andes, the Alps and Morocco where I travelled to practice mountaineering, rock climbing, canyoning, ski mountaineering, ice climbing, and mountain biking.

As a guide, my aim is to instill my passion for the mountains in you and that you experience it in the same way that I do: intensely and with minimal risk. Mountains are more than a job or an entertainment; they are a philosophy and a way of learning about life.

Top, greatly recommended!

Raquel was very lovely with the kids. Everyone was very happy!

Laura

Everything was well-planned. The guide Raquel explained what we needed to do and made sure that everyone understood. The guide provided wetsuits, safety gear, and helmets. We had options to climb and jump, or opt on any climb or jump we didn’t feel comfortable doing. I traveled with my 21 year old daughter, 58 year old husband and self (age 60). This was our first canyoning trip. Beginner level, was perfect for us, and we did well. We loved it and I’m so glad we discovered this amazing sport! We did every jump and climb! Thank you Raquel for your guidance! Also your recommendations for other hiking and touring in the area! We did visit Rupit, Besalu, and São Paulo! I would definitely recommend this to those that are in reasonable good fitness and love the water and jumping into water!
