The excursions to this town are countless, there are all kinds of colors and flavors.
There are varied and beautiful natural landscapes throughout the Pyrenees, but few are as special as those found throughout the Pallars Sobirà region, in addition to charming rural villages that provide a wonderful landscape to the area.
The excursions to Sort are, above all, scenic, which is what stands out the most. If we really want to appreciate the whole region from a bird's eye view, you can't miss an excursion to Noguera Pallaresa and the Vall d'Àssua.
We will be able to cross the entire river area at its highest point and enjoy views and a memory that will remain etched in your memory for the rest of your life. During the excursion we will visit Rialp, through the 19th century Santa Caterina suspension bridge. We will enjoy the charming routes of the medieval castle of this town and the picturesque streets of Olp, Surp and Altron.
We are talking about a route of approximately 18 kilometers, not excessively hard, that we can do all year round. Topics aside, we are facing an unforgettable excursion that will not leave anyone indifferent.
Another recommended excursion is to the dragon of Saverneda, Tornafort and the Siarb valley. We will cross ravines and visit the cozy village of Puigforniu, where we will discover its origins and customs. In addition, we will enjoy the views offered by Montsent de Pallars and we will be able to see native species such as the black woodpecker, a bird of the woodpecker family that is very characteristic of the area.
We want to talk to you about canyoning, this sport is practiced in the ravines of a mountain or river, having to overcome the obstacles or unevenness that are found on the way: whether by walking, jumping, swimming, rappelling, going down slides, etc. We will have to jump into pools of water, slide down slides that water and the years have dug into the rock using ropes to go down with the rappelling technique.
On each descent you can find sections with low water, points where the water is quite deep and other sections with waterfalls, terrain with lush vegetation, sections where it seems that night has fallen due to its narrowness and winding nature.
