Description

The Sierra y Cañones de Guara Natural Park is a popular venue for outdoor activities such as canyoning, hiking, abseiling and rock climbing. Avalancha is one of the region's best rated operators and offers one-day tours as well as multi-day packages canyoning in the area. The activity reviewed here is a canyoning day-tour that lasts on average 4-5h, possibly longer depending in which river it takes place.

Access & Transport

The company is based in the village of Alquezar, 20km north of Barbastro (A-1232) and 50km east of Huesca (A-22/N-240 then A-1229). However, note that the meeting point might be elsewhere and will be communicated during your exchange with the operator.

Meta review

Excluding the odd disgruntled client, the outfit gets exceptionally positive reviews on web portals and those do appear to be genuine. Reviewers enjoy the quality of the experience including the scenery, the adrenaline and the professionalism of the guides. Many do note that the way back may require some degree of fitness but would gladly go for another outing another day.

Environmental & Social

Eco-friendly activity. This helps support small independent operators and the local rural economy.
