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.

See all- Expedition Montgó- Sunset special -End of SeasonCampo de tiro de Denia, Xàbia
It's that time again! Join us for the final hike of our Third season, and we're excited to continue our tradition of watching the sunset from the breathtaking Cima Montgó - one of the most stunning locations on the Costa Blanca.
Make sure to bring your own Snacks and drinks to enjoy at the summit, where we'll have plenty of time to relax, eat, and enjoy the sunset on this special day.
The sun will set at approximately 21:29, and we'll have around 25 minutes before dusk ends. So we'll need to leave promptly as we make our way back down the small scramble section. After the scramble, it's plain sailing along the clearly defined mountain path back to the cars. However, please remember to bring your head torch for the descent in the dark.
Once back at the cars, we can head to a prearranged location to celebrate the end of another fantastic hiking season.
Thank you for joining us throughout the season.
*************************************ESPAÑOL***********************************
¡Es esa época del año de nuevo! Únete a nosotros para la última caminata de nuestra tercera temporada, y estamos emocionados de continuar con nuestra tradición de ver la puesta de sol desde la impresionante Cima Montgó, uno de los lugares más impresionantes de la Costa Blanca.Asegúrate de traer tu propio picnic y bebidas para disfrutar en la cima, donde tendremos mucho tiempo para relajarnos, comer y disfrutar de la puesta de sol en este día tan especial.
El sol se pondrá aproximadamente a las 21:29, y tendremos alrededor de 25 minutos antes de que termine el crepúsculo. Así que necesitaremos partir puntualmente mientras descendemos por la pequeña sección de trepada. Después de la trepada, es un camino llano y claramente definido de vuelta a los coches. Sin embargo, recuerden traer sus linternas frontales para el descenso en la oscuridad.
Una vez de vuelta en los coches, podemos dirigirnos a un lugar previamente acordado para celebrar el final de otra fantástica temporada de senderismo.
Gracias por acompañarnos durante toda la temporada.

IMPORTANT: This event is only for those who have completed the Via Ferrata Skill Day, shared skills day, or have a relevant qualification.
Join us for a Last (day time😉) Via Ferrata adventure before the summer, on one of the area's most rewarding K2 via ferratas – Penya el Figueret! This route packs in a lot of fun in just a few hours, with a fast and scenic climb that gains elevation quickly – much like Ponoch – and ends with a fantastic rappel descent.
Expect exposed traverses, great views, and just enough challenge to keep things interesting. The route is ideal for those who’ve already tackled a couple of ferratas and want something a little more adventurous, without stepping up to K4.
The rappel at the end is not optional, but don’t worry – if you’re still building confidence with abseiling, Jay will guide you down safely. It’s a brilliant finish to a scenic and satisfying route.
After the ferrata, we’ll head to a local bar or restaurant to relax, refuel, and share the day’s stories.Jota's Take: This is definitely one of my favourite K2s. It feels like a scaled-down version of Ponoch – big views, a fun climb, and a proper descent that makes it feel like a complete adventure.

IMPORTANTE: Este evento es solo para quienes hayan completado el Día de Habilidades de Vía Ferrata, el día compartido o tengan una calificación relevante.Únete a nosotros para una última aventura de vía ferrata (de día 😉) antes del verano, una de las mejores vías ferratas K2 de la zona: ¡Penya el Figueret! Esta ruta ofrece mucha emoción en solo unas pocas horas, con una subida rápida y con buenas vistas, parecida a la de Ponoch, y termina con un rappel espectacular.
Encontrarás travesías expuestas, paisajes increíbles y un nivel de dificultad perfecto para quienes ya han hecho un par de ferratas y quieren algo un poco más emocionante, sin llegar al nivel K4.El rappel al final no es opcional, pero no te preocupes – si aún estás aprendiendo, Jay te ayudará a bajar con seguridad. Es una forma genial de terminar esta ruta tan bonita y completa.
Después de la ferrata, iremos a un bar o restaurante cercano para relajarnos, comer algo y compartir historias del día.Opinión de Jota: Esta es una de mis K2 favoritas. Me recuerda a una versión más fácil de Ponoch – con buenas vistas, una subida divertida y un descenso que hace que se sienta como una aventura completa.
