PR-CV 147 LA CATEDRAL DEL SENDERISMO

Promoter: Ayuntamiento de la Vall de Laguar

Certification status: Positive quality control

0 reviews

There is no proof of quality control on the record of this trail in the last years. For this reason, it is unknown whether it complies with the optimal signage and maintenance conditions for hikers to take the trail following these signs exclusively.
Hikers have to take into consideration that the information about the signage and maintenance of the trails for which the promoter entity is responsible might not be up to date anymore, since it refers to its state on the date of its approval. Furthermore, mountain sports entail risks associated with the activity itself and the environment where they take place, for which any person is fully liable. For this reason, hikes need to be planned properly and adequate training, equipment and sensible use of the trails are required.

Circular route that starts in Fleix, one of the three towns that make up the municipality of Vall de Laguar. Known as "The Cathedral of Hiking" or "The route of the 6,800 stone steps", this is a moderately physically demanding route through zigzagging ascents and descents crossing the Girona river twice, a section of it better known as the Infern ravine.
