Pas de Terradets

Pas de Terradets is a limestone canyon located where Pallars Jussà and Noguera meet, with sheer rock walls that rise roughly 500 meters (1,640 feet). These walls form a narrow defile through which the Noguera Pallaresa River flows, creating a dramatic natural passage through the mountains.

The canyon formed through natural erosion of limestone over vast periods and served as a key passage between Noguera and Pallars since medieval times. This natural corridor enabled trade and movement between the regions for centuries.

The place sits within the Catalan Pre-Pyrenees, where mountain landscapes deeply influence daily life and traditional practices of communities in the region.

The site is accessible via the C-13 road and train service to Cellers station, with parking available at both ends of the defile. Spring and autumn offer the most comfortable conditions, as summer heat can be intense and winter weather may affect accessibility.

The limestone walls attract climbers from across Europe who practice on numerous routes of varying difficulty levels and regularly establish new paths. Professional mountaineers often visit to test their skills on these challenging rock faces.
