Spring getaway near Barcelona you won't forget

No. The instructor handles all the manoeuvres. You enjoy the speed and, if you want to get involved, they will walk you through the basics as you go. This is not a lesson — it is an experience.

This activity is designed to make you feel the true force of the wind. We push for maximum speed within safe conditions, sailing on the trapeze when the Garbí allows it. Pure technical adrenaline on the water — perfect for anyone who wants to experience dinghy sailing at its most exhilarating.

From 1 pm onwards, when the Garbinada comes in. This south-westerly thermal wind blows from June to September at a steady 8–15 knots — the window when the catamaran can truly plane across the Garraf's waters.

The Adrenaline trip is a guided experience: the instructor sails, you enjoy the speed. The Sailing Taster is an active lesson aboard the Ludic where the goal is for you to learn and take the tiller yourself. If you want to learn sailing from scratch, the Sailing Taster is your option.

The Hire is for people with proven dinghy sailing experience who want to sail entirely on their own. The Adrenaline trip offers the same boat and the same thrill, but with the instructor on board handling the manoeuvres. No prior experience? This is your option.

The balloon takes off at sunrise from Igualada-Òdena Airfield, in the Anoia region, approximately 50 minutes from Barcelona via the AP-2 motorway. The exact point is confirmed 24 hours before the flight based on weather conditions.

No. Hot air balloons travel with the air currents: the pilot controls altitude to find different wind directions, but there is no rudder. This is what makes every flight over Montserrat a unique and unrepeatable adventure.

Safety is the absolute priority. If weather conditions are not suitable for flying, RocRoi offers a free date change or a full refund. Flights take place at sunrise, when atmospheric conditions are at their most stable.

Yes. A hot air balloon flight is a gentle, contemplative activity: there are no vibrations, no sudden sense of height and movement is virtually imperceptible. Suitable for people with basic mobility. Those with severe vertigo or serious heart conditions should consult their doctor before booking.

After landing, we celebrate with a traditional toast of Catalan cava and enjoy a picnic-style breakfast. Each participant receives their flight diploma signed by the pilot and the professional photo report of the day — your souvenir of Montserrat's skyline from above.

No. The Roques de l'Empalomar K4 requires having completed at least one via ferrata previously. Its technical overhangs and the exposure of the most demanding sections require confident handling of the safety equipment. If you are looking for your first via ferrata, we recommend the Roca de la Creu K2 in Ribes de Freser. Once that is done, the Roques de l'Empalomar is the logical next step.

The route's walls are Maastrichtian limestone — the final stage of the Upper Cretaceous — formed around 66–72 million years ago. The route sits on the Vallcebre syncline, a geological structure within the South Pyrenean fold belt that creates the characteristic vertical walls of the route. In the Berguedà region, this type of limestone has preserved important palaeontological sites with dinosaur remains from the end of the Mesozoic era.

Our guides are qualified and trained in via ferrata rescue techniques. If you freeze up, we apply additional rope belay and direct technical support at the specific move so you can work through it at your own pace without external pressure. Supervision is continuous throughout the route. If the situation requires it, the guide can manage the group's exit via the most appropriate descent route.

The Baumes Corcades is the K3-K4 level: an intermediate challenge with the 69-metre Nepalese bridge as its centrepiece, suitable from 12 years old with good fitness. The Roques de l'Empalomar is the technical K4 of the Berguedà: longer and more demanding overhangs, no Nepalese bridge but sustained higher technical difficulty, from 16 years old only, and prior experience mandatory. They are two products for different audiences.

The optimal season is October to May. Spring and autumn offer ideal temperatures for vertical effort. In winter, sunny days with tramontane wind deliver the best views of the snow-covered Pedraforca and the Cadí-Moixeró range. In summer the heat on a south-facing wall can be intense: a very early start is recommended if you go in July or August.

No. This is a beginner-level activity. Our guides explain the basic technique before you get on the water. If you can paddle, you can enjoy this route.

Yes, the activity is suitable from age 6 as long as they are accompanied by an adult. Late afternoon departures tend to have calmer sea conditions, making this one of the safest and most comfortable options for families.

The Pasífae sculpture, created by artist Óscar Estruga, weighs three tonnes of copper and stands on the Ribes Roges breakwater. Watching it rise on the horizon from water level is a perspective that simply does not exist from land — and the defining photograph of this route.

The trip runs in the late afternoon, when the sea is usually at its calmest. Estimated total duration is 2 hours on the water (2h 30min including briefing and use of facilities). Check exact availability in the booking calendar.

We recommend bringing a waterproof case to protect your device. The Pasífae silhouetted against the sky from a kayak is one of the most sought-after shots on the Barcelona coast — it is worth being prepared.

It is suitable for people with good physical fitness even without prior via ferrata experience. The K3-K4 level demands sustained effort on vertical rock, but the progression is guided throughout. If you have never done a via ferrata before, we recommend starting with the Roca de la Creu K2 in Ribes de Freser and stepping up to Baumes Corcades on a second visit.

It is completely normal to feel respect for 69 metres of empty space. RocRoi guides explain the crossing technique before you reach the bridge: pace, hand position and breathing. If you decide not to cross when the moment comes, there is an escape variant that lets you continue the route without crossing the bridge. The decision is yours and the guide handles it without any pressure.

The Nepalese bridge at Baumes Corcades is 69 metres long, making it one of the longest in Spain within a via ferrata. It is a horizontally tensioned cable walkway suspended over the void, requiring balance, a steady step and controlled breathing to cross. It is the defining feature that turns this via ferrata into a truly memorable experience.

The optimal season is October to May. In autumn the holm oak and sandstone surroundings offer warm colours. In winter, sunny days with tramontane wind give the best views: the snow-capped Pyrenees appear to the north as you climb the wall. In summer the heat on a sun-facing rock face can be intense; an early start is recommended if you go in July or August.

The Roca de la Creu is K2: a vertical baptism, ideal for families and first-timers, no bridge. The Baumes Corcades sit in the middle ground at K3-K4: more physically demanding, with the 69-metre Nepalese bridge as the centrepiece, suitable from 12 years old. The Roques de l'Empalomar represent the most technical K4 in the Berguedà: overhangs, higher difficulty, for those who already have via ferrata experience. Each one occupies its own territory in terms of level and experience.

The experience is designed for groups, typically from 6 people upwards — ideal for friends, hen/stag dos or company teams.

No. Before you start, the instructors explain how the equipment works and go through the basic rules of the game.

The activity lasts approximately 4 hours, combining paintball rounds and archery.

Yes. It is one of the most popular group activities near Barcelona because it combines competition, strategy and teamwork.

Everything you need: marker, mask, protective gear and paintballs for several rounds.

That is the whole point. This is not a passive trip: it is an active lesson. Under the instructor's supervision, you take part in the manoeuvres and hold the tiller to feel how the wind translates into speed on the water.

The Ludic is a collective dinghy with capacity for up to 9 people. It is stable, safe and designed specifically for teaching: the instructor can be on board with the whole group at the same time, making learning more dynamic and safer than on small single-handed beginners' dinghies.

Not at all. The taster is designed for absolute beginners. Instructors adapt their language and techniques so that everyone can enjoy their first dinghy sailing experience on the Garraf Coast.

The sailing taster is a class: you learn, practise manoeuvres and take the tiller. The Adrenaline trip is a guided catamaran experience where the instructor handles the sailing while you enjoy the speed and the Garraf scenery. If you are after thrills without the technical learning, the Adrenaline trip is your option.

Yes. The Ludic has capacity for up to 9 people, making it the ideal option for groups who want to share the experience aboard the same boat.

Two hours is enough to leave the swimming area of Ribes Roges beach and explore the coastline at a relaxed pace: reach the Pasífae sculpture, round the breakwater and catch a view of Cubelles. A unique perspective on Vilanova that simply cannot be achieved from land.

It is not required. The open kayak is very stable and easy to handle. For the 2-hour hire we recommend a basic level of fitness to enjoy the paddling. Before you set off, the RocRoi team gives you the basic instructions so you can paddle efficiently and safely from the very first minute.

The price includes the full technical kit: self-draining kayak (single or double), double-bladed paddle and certified buoyancy aid. You also have access to the changing rooms, showers and lockers at the RocRoi nautical base.

Yes. As an open (sit-on-top) kayak, splashes from paddling are to be expected. We recommend wearing a swimsuit or technical clothing that can get wet. The changing rooms and showers at the base mean you can get changed comfortably when you finish.

Absolutely. Before you set off, the RocRoi team analyses wind and sea conditions to point you towards the best route of the day. During the hire you will paddle in a monitored coastal area, and we have a support vessel on standby for any unexpected situation.
