WHY ROCROI AND NOT ANOTHER COMPANY?
If you are here, you probably want an unforgettable adventure to connect with your loved ones and with nature. You want everything to go perfectly, and you know that in outdoor activities safety comes first, but it is also important to you to have a quality experience with a company that takes real action on sustainability to protect the natural environment. In other words, what you are looking for is:
PURE EXPERIENCE!
Well, at this point, let us give you 8 reasons why we are different and why you should stop looking right now:
#1 VOCATION: We have spent 30 years working on a dream.
We were born from the dream of two young people who loved adventure sports, nature and the valleys of the Pyrenees. So much so that we were the first to practise and promote active tourism in the Catalan Pyrenees. Since then, we have been incredibly fortunate to work in our passion for 30 years, to the point of turning it into a lifestyle. Today we keep the same enthusiasm we started with: innovating and betting on the development of our sector through digitalisation, putting digital tools within the reach of companies in the sector and, within everyone’s reach, more than 500 outdoor and adventure activities.
#2 FUN: thrills, excitement and above all unforgettable memories
In each of our activities we want you to feel a whole range of emotions: from the anticipation of jumping off for paragliding or bungee jumping, to the laughter and joy of overcoming unexpected challenges together in the rapids of rafting, kayaking or canyoning. We want you to experience the calm of a kayak journey, drifting with the currents and taking in ecosystems full of diversity in unique natural settings, far from the urban rush of everyday life. Whatever your preference, our aim is for your experience to end in enjoyment, becoming the thread that leads to unforgettable memories and lasting bonds.
#3 RESPECT: We are sustainable and we can prove it
We work hard to promote a culture of mutual respect among our employees, clients and the communities where we work. We are also committed to the integrity of the natural ecosystems where we carry out our activities, working to preserve and protect them.
RocRoi holds recognition from two European Charters for Sustainable Tourism, as well as the Biosphere Certificate, and has been the driving force behind the creation of a Bureau Veritas certificate specific to the outdoor activities sector, for companies that follow sustainable business management guidelines. RocRoi also runs two internationally recognised projects: in Argentinian Patagonia, within Los Glaciares National Park, with a kayak operating concession, and another on the west coast of Greenland, in the Kangia area, recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
We love the environments we have chosen to offer quality active tourism. Our centres are mainly located in protected Biosphere Reserves, which is why we are committed to conserving the environment where we develop our pure adventure experiences: the Alt Pirineu Natural Park, one of the 10 best beaches in Catalonia according to National Geographic, Ribes Roges in Vilanova i la Geltrú, Grandvalira, the largest ski resort in southern Europe, the Menorca Biosphere Reserve, Ordesa and Monte Perdido National Park or Doñana National Park (and hundreds of locations around the world that are, oh!).
We preserve all these places so that you and your loved ones can keep connecting with nature and the outdoor sports around us. Can you think of better places to enjoy outdoor adventure?
#4 CONNECTION: We are restless and we love to ‘connect’ with the world
At RocRoi, connection is a fundamental pillar of our philosophy and of how we understand the world. A virtuous circle between people, sport and nature.
That is why we work every day to connect people with adventure through a catalogue of more than 500 activities on our website, in unique and unrivalled destinations, closer to you than you might imagine. We also connect with other cultures through expeditions to countries such as Nepal, Turkey, China, the Zambezi, Morocco, Latin America… always looking for a new adventure to make our product even better. We are mainly in Spain, although we also have a base in Argentina (next to Los Glaciares National Park) and in Greenland (in Disco Bay). In every case we work with groups from every corner of the Earth: Germans, Russians, English, Americans, French, Italians… We speak all the languages and know how to make international clients feel at home.
We connect with sport at every level, from promoting and supporting local events to successfully organising events for international federations, such as the 2001 World Canoeing Championships, or even the IOC with qualifying events for the Olympic Games. And we connect with nature through respect for the ecosystems where we operate.
#5 PASSION: Quality is our responsibility
We put all our passion into every experience we offer, caring for every detail with precision and meticulousness. That is why we take great care with all the equipment we make available to our clients, offering top-brand gear and renewing it every year: yes, yes. You read that right: EVERY YEAR. These are equipment brands we know first-hand, tested by our team and trusted so much that we are even their official distributor. Find out more at: www.rocroidistribution.com
In addition, all the professionals who lead activities at our centres are qualified. In fact, most of them teach at the sports federations behind the activity they lead, as well as at official bodies. It all sounds very dull, but take this away: as well as being tremendously professional, they are also fun. A safe bet, we promise.
#6 AUTHENTICITY: We are what you see, with no artifice or exaggeration
We strive to be genuine, honest and transparent in everything we do. From our communications to our actions, we maintain unwavering integrity and show sincere humility in every interaction. We believe authenticity is key to building lasting, meaningful relationships with our clients and our community.
That is why we focus on showing authentic experiences, with no artifice or exaggeration, sharing posts from clients when they take part in our activities. By keeping open and transparent communication with our clients, informing them about potential risks and safety precautions before every activity, we help build their trust and establish a genuine relationship with them.
#7 EMPATHY: We look after you, whoever you are and whoever you come with
Don’t get us wrong: we mean that we have the infrastructure, equipment and team to adapt to any request from our clients, whether you are a couple, a family, a company group, a school or a stag or hen party. We will make sure you have a great time.
We personalise activities if you ask us to. We don’t like catalogues. We have them, yes, because they are necessary, but we would much rather larger groups tell us how they would prefer the activity to go, and we make it happen. Would you prefer to start at a different time? On a different day? Any special conditions for someone? Just ask, we are all ears.
#8 EXPERIENCE: pure, pure
Pure once, because our passion is for you to live an adventure full of fun that connects you with nature through outdoor sport, respecting the environment where we operate, and for you and yours to have an experience you will remember for life.
Pure twice, because we bring more than 30 years of vocation and knowledge to the sector, which lets us deeply empathise with the needs of our clients, communities and the professionals we work with, from an authentic relationship where transparent, open communication comes first, to offer safe, quality experiences.
