Frequently asked questions

How intense is the Riera del Carme canyon?
The tour is rated "Occasionally sporty", meaning there are real physical moments like jumps, slides or short swims, but you don't need to be an athlete. Expect bursts of adrenaline rather than sustained effort throughout the 2.5h run.
Do I need canyoning experience to join?
No prior experience is required. The "Occasionally sporty" level means fit beginners can handle it. If you've never done a canyon before, this is a solid entry point into the sport.
What's the best time of year to do this canyon near Igualada?
The season runs from May through September. Late spring and early summer typically offer the best water levels and manageable temperatures in the gorge.
Is the 50 € price per person all-inclusive?
Confirm directly with *Pyrenees Extrem* what's included, as equipment rental and guiding arrangements can vary. Contact them before booking if you have gear questions.
