Rápeles del Corredor de las Águilas Combinación
The Corredor de las Águilas near Montfalcó is a long, dry, and committing route with 10 rappels, the longest being 65m. It requires three 70m ropes and no wetsuit. The approach takes 1.5 hours from the upper parking at Collado de Brañal, following a track and then a faint path along the edge to the start, marked by a stone and a feather. The descent is sustained, starting with a 12m rappel from a tree. The second rappel is a very vertical 55m drop. R3 is a 40m rappel from a ledge into a hanging forest, landing on unstable terrain, with a fixed rope traverse to the left for safety before releasing the main rope. This canyon is a serious undertaking with no escape routes, demanding a full day (7 hours descent). The return walk is 2 hours. Good equipment with parabolts is reported, but the route's commitment grade (IV) indicates significant exposure and technical challenges.
