Barranco del Forcos

The Forcos ravine is a different ravine in each of its sections. This canyon is located in the town of Bergua (Fiscal). Thanks to its orientation, it is a ravine a little warmer than the Pyrenean ravines.

The first part of the collection is absolutely spectacular as it enters the “Puen das Crabas”. We started our descent with a beautiful 8 meter waterfall and a stretch of Flysch rock. Many waterfalls fall in this part. This section is tremendously beautiful and aesthetic. Therefore, only for this part it is already worth doing the ravine.

Once past the strait, the ravine runs through the forest, full of vegetation. Then we have several opportunities for optional jumps of between 3 and 10 meters. We will also enjoy 2 rappels of 8 and 10 meters.

This is a ravine that will delight those people who, although they do not have great experience in descent of ravines, if they have a sports spirit. It is one of the shortest ravines but also one of the most beautiful. Ideal ravine to enjoy between friends or as a couple a magical place, full of vegetation, waterfalls and beautiful rocks. After the Barranco a good option is to stay to continue enjoying this solitary and aesthetic site (it is located in the middle of the Sobrepuerto and quite isolated).

We also recommend the Barranco de Las Gloces, which is considered one of the most beautiful in the south of the Pyrenees.
