Activity description
Come to the Pyrenees to do the Via Ferrata Cascada del Sorrosal: the most beautiful in Spain!
The Aragonese Pyrenees are undoubtedly a paradise for those looking for a holiday in the mountains hiking, climbing or simply enjoying the impressive mountains such as the Aneto Peak or the Maladeta Massif. Without a doubt, the best known natural park in the Aragonese Pyrenees is the National Park of Ordesa and Monte Perdido, 1 hour from Jaca and Huesca, which offers a wide variety of activities such as the famous route to the Cascada de la Cola de Caballo waterfall as well as rafting or via ferrata.
In the foothills of the Ordesa y Monte Perdido National Park, only 12 minutes away, in Broto, is the Via Ferrata Cascada del Sorrosal: one of the most beautiful via ferrata in Spain, as it runs along the Cascada del Sorrosal, formed by two waterfalls of 40 and 45 metres and goes into the Sorrosal ravine. It is a K3 via ferrata, i.e. of medium difficulty, which requires no previous experience. However, it is important not to have vertigo as you will climb about 100 metres vertically up walls and stairs. Awa Aventura's instructors will guide you on this 2-3 hour via ferrata and will provide you with all the equipment to make the activity completely safe.
