Canyoning in Catalonia: a winter adventure
Canyoning in Catalonia is not limited to the warmer months of the year. In winter, the routes are adapted to the season and we do dry canyons (without water), offering a new perspective of the canyons and a highly recommended experience. The Barranco Seco del Tres in Ratlla is one of the most impressive destinations for canyoning in winter.
This ravine is known for its natural beauty thanks to its formations carved by the passage of water over thousands of years. Canyoning in Catalonia in winter offers you a purer experience, without the crowds of the warmer months.
Characteristics of the Tres Dry Ravine in Ratlla
The Barranco Seco del Tres in Ratlla is ideal for those looking for an intermediate-advanced level of canyoning. During the route we will enjoy numerous very beautiful abseils, some of them up to 30 meters high.
One of the things that makes canyoning in Catalonia special in the Barranco Seco del Tres en Ratlla is the calm and isolation of the place. In winter, the number of people who venture into this activity decreases, allowing for a much calmer and deeper experience, where contact with nature is total.
