Regina of Peramola is one of the roads ferratas longer and hard of which can do in Catalonia.
Regina is one of the roads ferratas longer that can do in Catalonia, a classical indispensable that any excursionista would have to overlook.
It finds situated in the municipal term of Peramola, in the Catalan region of the Alt d’Urgell. The toponym refers to the mole of stone that dominates the population, known like mola of Sant Honorat.
This considered with a difficulty of 4 on 5+ and the feeling of vértigo is of 5 on 5.
It began to build in 1997 and to day of today is in mint condition, except the punte that it is necessary to cross that it begins to have some of the ropes that attach it broken, what does that balance more than what would like us.

900 m
To arrive to the point of start, have to take the C-14. The parking finds in the point kilométrico 149, some metres before the start of a tunnel and beside an ancient bridge
From the parking, take a way that heads to a ravine that remains to our left. We have to have precaución not to make a mistake us and take the way of return. We have to take the way that directs rightwards following the marks of red points. To the little while already to the foot of the wall will see the first grapas.
This first stretch is a vertical rise quite aerial, that finishes in a zone of matojos by which follow the way on foot.
We find us in a deep channel with vegetation, protected of the wind and of the sun. It is one of the kindest parts of the road ferrata Regina by his contrast with the verticalidad and the hardness of the stone of other stretches. We will continue going up, until arriving to a bifurcation.
To continuation, have to happen the bridge colgante of big height. The height is impressive and the feeling of vértigo big. In 2012, some of the wires of subjection of the bridge were loose, what to that swung but of the owed in his final part. At the end of the bridge, have to have precaución and ensure us of correct form to the grapas of the rock.
Next we will go up a vertical wall, very aerial until arriving to a landing. We have arrived to another wall, where a cartes indicates us that from this point the difficulty is very big and that this forbidden for boys, as further up there is a step that is practically impossible for them: ‘the Step of the Faith'.
After ladear by the most aerial part of the road, happen a collapsed and surround a wall until no longer there is at all more, there is not grapas to go up, only can treat to cross to the wall that have in front, doing a long step in the empty.
It remains a last stretch in the which decide take the way with collapsed or the easy but longer. The cansancio accumulated can influence in our decision, although any of the two variants will disappoint you.
The return is indicated and very instrumented with chains and pasamanos as if of a second ferrata treated . Roughly 1 hour of descent.

It is closed from the 2015, can that before. The City councils have not put of agreement in the one who has to do charge of the expenses of maintenance. Could do it in the 2013 and habia some pieces with the wires of life quite dilapidated and some of loose. I do not know if there are last news but if definitively they close it by fault of budget in the City councils will lose one of the vias more beautiful, complete, aerial and attractive of Catalonia. Another collateral damage to happen of 100 to 0.
You say that it is in mint condition.
Of which date is the description ?
I found comments of 2014 that this enclosed
Now no as it is, but the last reference that had is that it was in very bad state.
