Description

Would you like to discover one of the best canyons near Madrid? Follow me on this canyoning adventure in the Arbilla Canyon, in Sierra de Gredos.

On this half-day program, we’ll discover the beautiful natural spots in Sierra de Gredos, a mountain range that belongs to the Central System. Situated near La Mira, one of the most popular peaks in the range, the Arbilla Canyon is two hours away from the city of Madrid. So, if you’re staying there, you’ll be able to reach the canyon very easily.

Our meeting point will be Poyales del Hoyo, a municipality in the province of Ávila. On a very short walk, we’ll get to the canyon and start having fun. We’ll enjoy several descents, jumps, slides and rappels on the way. The canyon offers many exhilarating points as well as astonishing views from the range.

Please, take into account that this program is designed for participants with no canyoning experience. However, the trip requires a good level of fitness.

If you’re looking for an adrenaline rush on a fun outdoor activity, you can’t miss this opportunity. Book your place on this canyoning program near Madrid by sending the request. I’m sure you’ll have a wonderful time.

What people are saying about Pedro

Raquel

Pedro was so knowledgeable about the area, and graciously answered all our questions, even those unrelated to the hike. He was very kind in picking us up from Madrid for a small fee. He also took a bunch of photos of my husband and I during the trek, which I really appreciated since those are our only pictures together from our trip to Spain. I'd definitely recommend Pedro to anyone traveling to Madrid and interested in experiencing nature outside the city.
