What to expect

We'll hike in a area called Alta Garrotxa, which is most definitely my favourite mountain range, because of it’s remoteness and rugged landscape, where mountains peaks are blanketed with Forest. Covering an area of 32,865 hectares it has been declared an Area of Natural Interest, because how difficult it is to reach and it’s wealth of wildlife. The climate makes it perfect for hiking all year round, and although cold in the winter, it’s a great time to visit, where you’ll experience a dry climate, perfect for a days hiking. We'll follow the Path of Valencians along the river where we'll pass turquoise pools and eventually the Waterfall of Sant Aniol d'Aguja. The waterfall is the highlight of the hike and it's incredible to jump in and cool off. . Other things to note The landscape in Alta Garroxta is spectacular with remote trails to completely immerse yourself in nature. Perfect location to hike in summer and winter.
