One of the best canyons in Andalusia
Rio Verde is one of the best canyons you can do in Andalusia it belongs to the ranking of the 5 best canyons in all Spain. Its paradise turquoise waters and its versatile, dynamic route with its countless jumps are among its best attractions. This version of Rio Verde is suitable for everyone, whether you are just starting out in canyoning or you already have experience. If you come with your family, your children from 9 year old can also enjoy this sensational experience. This is a perfect family activity for the summer and your holiday.
The Rio Verde is packed with adrenaline-packed fun: with a 4.5 metre slide, two abseils of 6 and 9 metres and many optional jumps ranging from 3 to 9 metres.
Our experienced guides will tailor the activity to the needs and enjoyment of each participant, while taking the best photos to remember it all.
Logistics of the day at Rio Verde
In open groups, we meet up for this activity at 9.00am in the morning at the bar-restaurant ‘El Capricho’ in the village of Otivar. If you want to have breakfast or buy a delicious sandwich (they make sandwiches with meat, omelette, ham, cheese…) come a little earlier to not break the timetable of the group. From there you will follow us in your vehicle along a forest track (30 min.) until you reach the river bed. There we will distribute the equipment and start the hike upstream until we reach the waterfall we call the ‘Y’ (40 min. approach), where the most famous pool of Rio Verde is located. We will equip ourselves with wetsuit, harnes, helmet… and your guide will start the activity explaining the most important concepts you need to know about canyoning and safety. And let’s jump!!!! 3h30 of fun and enjoyment await you.
And if I’m looking for something even more challenging…!???
If you are looking for top action canyoning, for the top canyon for jumping, ask us about the Rio Verde x-pro version. This is a more explosive canyon and requires a higher level of fitness as the activity is almost doubled in length and the jumps to, slides and abseils are multiplied. The normal version of Rio Verde is about 4 hours of activity and the Rio Verde x-pro is 6.30 hours.
Our guides are ready for you to enjoy the best canyoning experience in Andalusia!

Our Rio Verde Canyoning Offers
Every Wednesday of the summer, we have a special offer for canyoning in Rio Verde and only from 1 participant. If you are only a few participants, you could join a group and benefit from the group rates.
We also have offers on all other days of the week, whether for Rio Verde or for other canyoning trips, just ask us for our availability and our recommendations.
If you are a group of friends, family… we also have group rates, where you can choose to enjoy a private activity. Or adopt other participants, expand ‘the family’ and you will benefit from better offers.
From TUUR we want you to have the best possible experience and we believe that Wednesday is the best day for Rio Verde because the canyon is not usually crowded and where you can feel in an exclusive environment.
