Activity description

This ravine has no water at this time. You can book the Barranco de Gorgo de la Escalera a few minutes away.

Face your fears in this water canyoning adventure in the heart of the Estret de les Penyes canyon, just a few minutes from Alicante.

A place where beginners become adventure addicts, this lesser-known canyon in the heart of the Costa Blanca mountains is renowned for its belly-flip abseils, addictive whitewater descents, and adrenaline memories that will have you coming back for more.

Estret de les Penyes canyon is located 30 mins drive from Benidorm in the town of Callosa de Sarria in the Marina Baixa region of Alicante. Following the Algar River, this ravine is short but intense and ends in the town of Bolulla in the Tárbena Valley. A nature trail that will test your endurance, be prepared to swim, walk, jump, and scramble as you use every muscle to make it to the end. Return back to the activity base where your adventure will end.
