Discover the best outdoor adventure near Marbella – where you’ll be swimming, sliding, jumping, climbing, rappelling, and admiring the natural canyon around you! It takes about 3 hours to complete this breathtaking canyoning trail.

5.00The whole adventure was excellent & Martin our guide was superb. All the kit was provided to allow maximum enjoyment of the river walk. There was a good amount of swimming and some great “optional” jumps. Thanks
Very fun adventure. Juan,...

5.00Very fun adventure. Juan, our guide, was very kind, patient and knowledgable. Hints...Hydrate prior to going as we didn't have access to drinking water once we entered the river. Wear a bathing suit to the site so that you can simply put the wetsuit over the swimsuit. Leave all jewelry at home, lock valuables in your car. They will have a waterproof container for your keys that the guide will carry for you. If you have family or friends that don't join you on the adventure, bring them along to the parking area as there are great hiking trails they can access while they wait for you. Enjoy the fun!
Jumping into a canyoning adventure!

5.00I had never heard of canyoning when I read about this tour, but once I saw the pictures I knew we’d love it, and we did! Martin was a fabulous guide easily relaying instructions in multiple languages and able to visit and keep us all safe and on course along the way. I’d definitely recommend using the wet suits as you slide down rocks and the suits keep you from being scratched. Definitely take the jumps and stop to enjoy the views. Such a fun activity and I’d say a perfect excursion for families with teens and college age children. Definitely 2 thumbs up!
