What we’re about
Welcome explorers to 'Expedition Costa Blanca', we are a group that will be exploring the exciting, spectacular, and hidden sights of the mountain areas of the Marina Alta and Marina Baja, in the Costa Blanca region of Spain
This group will appeal to those who are already 'fit to hike' with a sense of adventure, who want to meet like-minded individuals to enjoy the great outdoors.
Some of our trips will involve various grades of scrambling, ridge walks and you may need a head for heights. This will be explained fully on each event page.
For those of you that are just novices at hiking and lack experience of mountain hiking, we will aim to run some less challenging events to allow you to gain the necessary experience and fitness. These will be clearly stated on the programme of events.
We look forward to meeting you all on our adventures.

Expedition: Barranc de Galitero
Pont dels Fortins, Partida Fortins, 2, Castell de Castells, ES🇬🇧
Thanks to Annabelle, we have this little gem of a route!
If you enjoy a good scramble, or you’ve always wanted to try scrambling, this is the perfect event for you. After an easy 6 km hike, we’ll reach the lowest point of the Barranc de Galitero, where the adventure begins. Each section of the route sees us ascending through the barranc, presenting several walls to scramble up — each seemingly increasing in difficulty but always with the option to walk around, making it great for everyone to give it a go.
After reaching the final dam, we’ll hike back to the start, where a rewarding caña or two awaits!As this route involves sections of scrambling, we recommend wearing a helmet for extra safety.
🇪🇸
Gracias a Annabelle, ¡tenemos esta pequeña joya de ruta!
Si disfrutas de una buena trepada o siempre has querido probar el scrambling, este evento es perfecto para ti. Tras una caminata fácil de 6 km, llegaremos al punto más bajo del Barranc de Galitero, donde comienza la aventura. Cada sección de la ruta nos lleva a ascender por el barranco, con varios muros para trepar — cada uno aparentemente más difícil, pero siempre con la opción de rodearlo, ¡lo que lo hace ideal para que todos lo intenten!
Después de llegar a la presa final, regresaremos al inicio, donde nos espera una caña o dos de recompensa.Como esta ruta incluye tramos de trepada, recomendamos llevar casco por seguridad.

Canyoning: Barranco del Fraimó
El Molí, 03814 Alcoleja,, Alicante, ESIMPORTANT: This event is for those who have completed the Canyoning Skill Day or have autonomous experience.
🇬🇧
Barranco del Fraimó is a vertical, semi-dry canyon located near the village of Sella, Alicante. The descent features 7 main rappels, with the longest measuring 46 meters. Some sections have minor pools that may form in wet conditions, but generally, it’s a dry descent—perfect for wearing shorts and bringing a towel just in case. The approach takes approximately 20–30 minutes with a two-car shuttle (or up to 1.5–2 hours for a single-car strategy), and the descent lasts around 2–3 hours. The return is straightforward, taking roughly 20–30 minutes.Jota’s Take: It’s been a while since I did this canyon with Hajni, Sazbi, and Dan, so I can’t remember too much—which can only mean it’s really good! Even better, it’s so close to Sella that we can climb afterwards—don’t forget cool boxes and beers. Adventure followed by a chill finish!
🇪🇸
IMPORTANTE: Este evento es para quienes hayan completado el Día de Habilidades de Barranquismo o tengan experiencia autónoma.El Barranco del Fraimó es un cañón vertical y semi-seco situado cerca del pueblo de Sella, en Alicante. El descenso incluye 7 rápeles principales, siendo el más largo de 46 metros. Algunas secciones pueden presentar pozas menores en condiciones de lluvia, pero por lo general es un descenso seco; ideal para llevar pantalones cortos y una toalla por si acaso. La aproximación dura aproximadamente 20–30 minutos con un sistema de dos coches (o hasta 1,5–2 horas con un solo coche), y el descenso toma alrededor de 2–3 horas. El regreso es sencillo, tomando aproximadamente 20–30 minutos.
La Opinión de Jota: Hace tiempo que no hago este barranco con Hajni, Sazbi y Dan, así que no recuerdo demasiado, ¡lo que solo puede significar que es realmente bueno! Además, está tan cerca de Sella que podemos escalar después—no olvides traer neveras y cervezas. ¡Aventura seguida de un final relajado!
