Barranc Font del Llop
The Font del Llop canyon near Borredà offers a flexible approach: 5 minutes with a 4x4 or 20 minutes on foot from the main road. The equipment, consisting of spits, parabolts, and trees, should be checked for condition. The descent includes seven rappels, requiring two 40m ropes. The first rappel is 10m from an unequipped tree, often linked with the second 9m rappel from a poorly visible, oxidized bolt. The third rappel is 19m from two hidden bolts, leading to a muddy pool. An escape route is available after this section, avoiding a large fallen tree. The return walk is 20 minutes.
