Activity description
The most popular Via Ferrata in Sant Feliu de Guixols, Costa Brava. Its perfect location makes it an interesting and challenging experience for everyone!
Cala de Molí is a renowned Catalan spot to practice via Ferrata. Situated in Sant Feliu de Guíxols in the center of the Costa Brava, it’s a Ferrata like no other. It is the only one that passes alongside the sea, turning it into a sea itinerary. In June 2013 it was opened to the public, quickly gaining popularity due to its unique journey which can be enjoyed all year round.
The activity takes place just south of Sant Feliu de Guixols in the protected area of Pla d'Espais d'Natural Interest of Catalonia, a protected and beautiful location close to town. Reaching the Via Ferrata takes a 20-minute walk along a GR footpath to the start of the route. The route follows the cliffs around the inlets of Cala Moli. Some of the highlights of this Via Ferrata are the 4 bridges used to cross the deep chasms that characterize this part of the rocky coast.
The first bridge is a narrow plank that sets the scene for a double wire cable and a short single cable bridges that follow. The last bridge crosses a wide gap with 3 cables for the hands and a couple for you to step on. The most physical section is almost round with a short section on a slightly overhanging wall - short, but sharp.
We are waiting you!
This via ferrata is generally not too strenuous, although one section does overhang gently placing more weight on the arms. There are some cable bridges that need a little confidence.
Duration: from 3 to 4 hours. It will depend on the participant's rate.
