Description

Experience the adrenaline filled via ferrata and canyoning adventures in one of Spain’s top outdoor regions – Sierra de Guara – during this 2 day program!

Located in Northern Spain’s province of Huesca in the region of Aragon, Sierra de Guara National Park is a destination for anyone seeking to spend time outdoors enjoying one of Europe’s most distinct landscapes. In particular, Sierra de Guara is known for its unique topography, including a variety of canyons, gorges, cliffs, and caves.  The terrain makes it a perfect place to practice two of my favorite outdoor activities – canyoning and via ferrata.

During this exciting 2 day trip, we will first spend a day exploring the area’s via ferrata, followed by a day spent deep within the area’s stunning canyons.  Each day’s adventure will last about 5-7 hours, starting from the office of my tour company, Expediciones.  We will provide all the necessary canyoning or via ferrata equipment you will need before heading off in our personal vehicles to the trailhead in the national park.

The via ferrata routes consist of a series of cables, metal rods, and footholds that will allow us to ascend steep slopes both safely and confidently.  This via ferrata is accessible to those with no previous experience.  Then, the day’s excitement will peak with a series of exciting abseils, or rappels, that we will use to descend.

The following day we will embark on our next adventure in one of area’s many incredible canyoning spots.  We will chose the exact canyon we explore depending on conditions, water levels, and the experience of the group.  Depending on the route we take, we will slide, swim, jump, and rappel down a series of canyons, waterfalls, and streams.  As an experienced guide with extensive knowledge of the local canyoning spots, I will make sure you enjoy this thrilling sport in a safe and fun manner.

Book now and I guarantee an exciting two days discovering the beautiful landscape of the Sierra de Guara while experiencing two thrilling, adrenaline filled activities: via ferrata and canyoning!

Mountain Leader

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.

What people are saying about Yann

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..
