Canyoning near Ronda in Garganta Verde, Sierra de Grazalema

Nestled in the province of Cádiz, about an hour from Ronda, Garganta Verde canyon is considered one of the most beautiful canyons in Spain. Its name, which means "green gorge", comes from the lush vegetation that covers its cliffs and the emerald light that shimmers through its crystal-clear waters.

Accompanied by a certified guide, you'll set off on a complete canyoning route featuring vertical abseils, jumps, natural slides, and narrow passages carved into the limestone over thousands of years.

After a short approach walk from the charming village of Zahara de la Sierra, you'll enter a whole new world: towering rock walls rising up to 400 meters, clear natural pools, and stunning rock formations shaped by centuries of water erosion… all while keeping an eye out for the majestic griffon vultures often soaring overhead.

The canyon offers a great balance of technical challenges and fun sections, making it ideal for those looking for both thrills and natural beauty. No prior experience is required, but it’s best suited to people in good physical condition, ready to take on an exciting outdoor challenge.

This 3 km itinerary with 180 meters of elevation change is the perfect way to explore a protected natural gem, part of a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, and one of Andalusia’s hidden treasures.
