'Find 2 ways to travel green along the Canaletes river around Horta de Sant Joan.'

That was my first mission on the 'Catalunya Challenge' which was all about sustainable travel. The first way I found was immediately a very adventurous and adrenaline filled one.

Canyoning BABY!

The Canaletes river splits a canyon in 2 so I dove right in...! ;-)

Just received my FIRST MISSION on the #CatalunyaChallenge and it's all about green mobility in the Ebre region which is declared a Biosphere Reserve by #UNESCO. I'll need to travel CARBON FREE to the #Canaletes River near #HortadeSantJoan. The river will lead me to the #Ebre river near #Benifallet. There I'll need to jump into the river in THE RIGHT way. 😮 Who can tell me what the right way is? I'm a little bit nervous already. From there I'll have to find an 'alternative' way of green transport to reach the Ebre river. Who knows what alternative way they are talking about? It's sure gonna be an active day tomorrow! Can't wait! 👌✌👍👊😎🌊 #DestinationChallenges with @catalunyaexperience #CatalunyaExperience

What an EPIC (carbon free) DAY! 😎 My 1st mission on the #CatalunyaChallenge started with a #canyoning adventure that gave me quite the adrenaline rush. After I went on a bike ride on one of the coolest cycling trails I've ever been on and all that while enjoying views like this. Let me show you what happened in the next posts 😉 Big thanks to the people from #Esgambi from #HortadeSantJoan for making all this possible. PS: Did you know that the mountain in the picture inspired #Picasso his famous cubism style 😉 #DestinationChallenges with @catalunyaexperience • #CatalunyaExperience

You're welcomed into the #canyon by this epic waterfall! Most of the canyon was submerged by water which made it extra fun. It's like a massive swimming pool created for you by nature. I spent the morning swimming, diving, jumping and sliding into the water. Good times and amazing views! #CatalunyaChallenge #DestinationChallenges with @catalunyaexperience #CatalunyaExperience
