Benahavís: Guided Canyoning Adventure (Benahavís River Walk)

About this experience

Discover the most exciting outdoor adventure near Marbella – where you’ll be swimming, sliding, jumping, climbing, abseiling and admiring the beauty of the natural canyon around you! It takes about 3 hours to complete this breathtaking canyoning trail. The activity is suitable for adventurers aged 8 to 60 who can swim and have a good level of fitness, making it a great family-friendly activity.

On this tour, you will navigate through a beautiful canyon. You can do multiple jumps and a 6-metre abseil, but this is optional. You'll swim through scenic caves, be surrounded by impressive high cliffs, jump off rocks (or watch others if you prefer to skip), slide down natural formations and let yourself be carried by the flowing stream. If you're lucky, you might even spot turtles or lizards along the way. It’s an adventurous trail you won’t forget. You need to swim through several stretches of deep water (some of which are 20–30 metres in length), so it's important that you can swim well independently. We have life jackets for children for extra support.

By booking a guided tour, you will be accompanied by an experienced, enthusiastic English-speaking guide who is fully licensed. We provide you with a complete set of high-quality canyoning gear (including shoes), and your energetic guide will help you through the tricky parts of the trail. The water temperature is around 22℃, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience. Even in winter, this activity is perfectly doable thanks to our top-quality wetsuits suited to the season. In July and August, you have the option not to wear a wetsuit at all. We provide you with free high-grip sturdy boots for the adventure, but you can also bring your own sports shoes if you have them. Any comfortable shoes with good grip are perfectly fine. So everything you need is included, no surprises or hidden fees.

We have a young, fun and international team with enthusiastic and licensed guides from Spain, the Netherlands, Hungary, France and more. Our team is passionate about guiding you through the canyon safely while making it an unforgettable experience at the same time. They’ll also take photos and videos with a GoPro®, which you can download for free after the tour – so you’ll have lasting memories of your adventure.

The activity takes place in Benahavís, a municipality just above Marbella. The location is only 15 minutes from Puerto Banús, and about 25 minutes from Estepona. Join the thousands of travellers who've already made unforgettable memories with us! We hope to see you soon.
