Urquiza–Olmo

K3 / K5Sources checked: 8 September 2026

Explore the route

This classic Montsec line near Corçà combines an original K3 section with a harder K5 extension. Decide which version suits the group before setting out. It is a distinct ferrata: Cast-Urquiza-Olmo and Cresta Urquiza-Olmo refer to other routes. Allow time for the complete approach and return as well as the equipped section.

Visiting conditions

Confirm the extension and descent. Returning through Sarah canyon requires separate preparation for abseiling.
