Alta Garrotxa, is most definitely my favourite mountain range, because of it’s remoteness and rugged landscape, where mountains peaks are blanketed with forest.
Covering an area of 32,865 hectares it has been declared an Area of Natural Interest, because how difficult it is to reach and it’s wealth of wildlife. The climate makes it perfect for hiking all year round, and although cold in the winter, it’s a great time to visit, where you’ll experience a dry climate, perfect for a days hiking.
The route starts next to the hostel in Sadernes and on the drive you’ll pass the medieval bridge of Valenti, crest beautifully over the gorge until you arrive in Sadernes, where we'll park and begin the hike.
We'll follow the Path of Valencians along the river where we'll pass turquoise pools and eventually the Waterfall of Sant Aniol d'Aguja. The waterfall is the highlight of the hike and possible to swim if you're feeling brave enough.
