Details
The Ferrer Ridge circular route, starting and finishing at Restaurante Coll de Rates, is a lesser-known gem in the shadow of the famous Sierra Bernia, offering a more intimate yet equally thrilling mountain experience. We're offering this hike due to popular demand, as it's an excellent choice for hikers looking to try their hand at scrambling or experience ridge walking for the first time.
The ridge spans approximately 5 km of rugged terrain, with most of the ridge featuring fairly easy scrambling, making it approachable yet adventurous. It’s a fantastic introduction to ridge traverses, culminating in a short, narrow ridge section for those seeking to push their boundaries in a safe and supportive setting. Along the way, you'll enjoy breathtaking views of the Marina Alta and Marina Baixa, all while immersed in the wild and untamed beauty of the Sierra del Ferrer.
With plenty of new ridge routes planned for this season, this hike is the perfect opportunity to see if you're ready to push beyond and take on even more exciting challenges in the mountains!

¡La ruta circular de Ferrer Ridge, que comienza y termina en el Restaurante Coll de Rates, es una joya menos conocida a la sombra de la famosa Sierra Bernia, ofreciendo una experiencia de montaña más íntima pero igual de emocionante. Ofrecemos esta caminata por demanda popular, ya que es una excelente opción para senderistas que quieren probar el scrambling o caminar por una cresta por primera vez.
La cresta cubre aproximadamente 5 km de terreno accidentado, con la mayor parte de la cresta ofreciendo un scrambling bastante fácil, lo que la hace accesible pero aventurera. Es una introducción fantástica a las travesías por crestas, culminando en una sección corta y estrecha para quienes desean superar sus límites en un ambiente seguro y de apoyo. Durante el recorrido, disfrutarás de impresionantes vistas de la Marina Alta y la Marina Baixa, mientras estás rodeado de la belleza salvaje de la Sierra del Ferrer.
Con muchas rutas nuevas por crestas planeadas para esta temporada, esta caminata es la oportunidad perfecta para ver si estás listo para ir más allá y asumir desafíos aún más emocionantes en las montañas.
