Roadtrips: Weekend canyoning in the Sierra de Guara…
Hop over the border in a customised van and let rip for a 2 or 3 day weekend of sport and adventure. Our South West rental agencies will tell you how to navigate through the exceptionally beautiful landscape that makes up the Sierra de Guara in the Aragon Espagnol, a sacred site for canyoning in Spain. We will point you towards riverside hikes that climb up to breathtaking cliffs and canyons where hundreds of vultures swoop and dive. Unforgettable memories are guaranteed!
Sounds good? Contact your agent who will give you plenty of tips on where to park for the night and what to do during the day throughout your island road trip.
On the way, you will have the opportunity to stop in the beautiful medieval village of Ainsa, one of the most beautiful villages in Spain. You will be able to glean in its alleys and to stop to take a glass or to eat an ice cream on the Plaza Mayor from where the view is impregnable! Then you can go to another medieval town on the Rio Vero: Alquezar, which is also part of the association of the most beautiful villages in Spain. You can install your van for free in the dedicated parking lots or spend the night in the heights by taking the direction of San Justin Hermitage.
Meet your canyoning guide in the morning at 9 am and go to discover one of the most beautiful aquarandises in Europe: the Rio Vero or the Peonera! 2 mythical canyons in an extraordinary mineral atmosphere. Optional jumps, swimming in turquoise waters, aquatic games in the heart of grandiose chaos (From 10 years old).
In the evening, enjoy the charm of the medieval village of Alquezar, for a dinner in restaurants with typical Spanish cuisine. Your canyoning guide in Sierra de Guara will be able to advise you on the best places to stay.
The Formiga canyon, a canyon that is a true summary of the Sierra de Guara with jumps, abseils, slides, canyon both very playful and aesthetic. Like the Rio Vero and the Peonera, this canyon is a must-see in the Sierra de Guara.
Return to France after the canyon or spend an extra night there to enjoy an extra canyon the next day.
