SPORTS EXPERIENCES
Corporate Sports Experiences in Barcelona: Health, Fun, and Team Cohesion
Barcelona is an international city renowned for sports and healthy activities, recognized worldwide for its sporting excellence and its ability to host major international events. Although the city’s global profile was consolidated with the 1992 Olympic Games, Barcelona and Catalonia have always been closely linked to sports, producing top-level clubs, organizations, and athletes. Catalonia is a pioneer in many sports and has world champions in traditional disciplines like football and basketball, as well as in less mainstream sports such as water polo, roller hockey, field hockey, ice hockey, artistic skating, artistic swimming, athletics, handball, korfball, tennis, cycling, mountain biking, sailing, and canoeing. In motor sports, Catalonia has also produced world champions in disciplines such as indoor and outdoor trial, strengthening its reputation as a global sports destination.
This sporting diversity is complemented by the geographical and scenic variety of Catalonia, which offers incomparable environments for outdoor physical and sports activities. Barcelona, open to the sea and home to the magnificent Collserola Park, allows us to enjoy activities both on the beach and in the mountains, from the Costa Brava to the Pyrenees and the volcanic lands of Garrotxa. In a single day, we can combine the beach with the snow and engage in sport climbing, alpine and cross-country skiing, and other outdoor healthy activities.
FC Barcelona, one of the largest and most influential multi-sport organizations in the world, has hosted global icons such as Joan Cruyff, Pep Guardiola, and Lionel Messi, and has been the cradle of outstanding Catalan athletes who have excelled internationally: Pau and Marc Gasol and Ricky Rubio in the NBA, artistic swimmers Gemma Mengual, Andrea Fuentes, Ona Carbonell, and Iris Tió, current world champion, the Márquez brothers, MotoGP world champions, and ultra-endurance and outdoor athletes like Kilian Jornet, Núria Picas, and Anna Comet. Also in the field of mountaineering, Catalonia has produced leading figures such as Araceli Segarra, the first Catalan woman to summit Mount Everest, and Òscar Cadiach, the first Catalan to complete all 14 eight-thousanders without supplemental oxygen, further consolidating the region’s tradition of excellence and achievement in the mountains.

The kayaks used are recreational K-2 (doubles).
After putting on lifejackets, you can start to enjoy recreational kayaking via fun activities in an especially designated area of the sea.

Kayaking Tour
Participants use K-1 kayaks (individual) and can choose from a wide range of routes adapted to suit all technical levels.
We have routes in:
– Barcelona: leaving from our base at the Olympic Port, we kayak to discover the “city skyline” – a skyline most tourists are completely unaware of!
– Costa Brava: These routes discover undisturbed locations hidden among the rocks, caves, narrow passages and small bays, making this activity very interesting and entertaining.
Leaving from: Port Lligat, Cala Montgó, Tamariu and Platja Castell.
– Llosa del Cavall reservoir in Vall de Lord.
Nature in its purest state in the foothills of the Pyrenees.
We offer various guided routes on the reservoir in a wild environment overlooked by the mountains of Port del Comte, Busa, Els Bastets and Mola de Lord.
