Girona Best Hikes
Guided Hiking Day Tour Pyrenees Mountains to Secret Waterfall
One of the best hikes near Girona, these waterfalls are great to visit all year round and are located in the area of Alta-Garrotxa, in the Pre-Pyrenees.
We offer day hikes from Girona and offer pickup from Girona train station from people coming from Barcelona, where you can get an express train from Barcelona Sants that takes 38 minutes.
We'll hike in a area called Alta Garrotxa, which 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 it's incredible to jump in and cool off. .
The landscape in Alta Garroxta is spectacular with remote trails to completely immerse yourself in nature.
Perfect location to hike in summer and winter.
Some of my favourite hiking routes in the Pyrenees Mountains of the Province of Girona. High mountains with peaks of up to 2900m in elevation.
