Top Cantabria Climbing

I took my husband and 20 year old daughter on a half day canyoning trip to barranco Ajan. I chose this one for the level of difficulty and fun…rappelling, slides and jumps up to 10 m. It is 1.5 hours drive from Bilbao to meeting point. Once there you are provided with 5mm wetsuit (which you will need!) and harness. Our guide Alvaro had only a few words of English and us only a few words of Spanish but we managed well despite the language barrier! Good sign language LOL. It was sooooo fun! Beautiful canyon…like a movie set! Alvaro was careful with safety and there was always an option not to jump though no one took it ! We had been canyoning before and this was the best one yet! Highly recommended . And Alvaro took photos and videos then sent them to us so no camera required. Bring cash to pay the balance (and tip) …no credit card facilities onsite.

Together with my 10-year-old son I joined a canyoning (beginners) tour. We enjoyed it very much partly because of the expertise of the guide. Everything went very relaxed and he continuously made sure he felt safe. During the beginner tour you can choose between strumming (rappel), sliding or jumping. We opted for the latter and had a jump of 2 meters, 5 meters and as a final 8 meters. Also been several waterfalls. Including walking to the start 2.5 hours busy. Highly recommended and a very good organization.

The cave was really fantastic. The guidance was also very experienced. Everything happened Safe, relax and they take their time for you. There were four of us and that made everything very compact. Was really nice.

Great experience, our instructor, Nando, has made us feel safe at all times... we had never done a caving dive until today!!! The cave is spectacular, Nando has explained every detail to us, he has taken photos... a 10, we will repeat for sure.

Our experience was canyoning. In the ravine of Aján, initiation level. It was me and my young son (14 years old). We had a great time (although the truth is that the last jump, ten meters in a pool; I dared not do it, my son, yes, without problem). A more than reasonable price, they give you all the necessary equipment (must-have, go with appropriate shoes, is the only thing they do not provide), and the Guide, Yuri, charming and superprofessional. We have yet to try the via ferratas and, perhaps one day, caving :-)

Sergio was a great guide. Some challenging jumps and repels always communicated well and kept us safe. With 4 teenage boys that can be a real challenge.

What a beautiful area this is. Really worth it. Good, quiet instructors. Take good account of the group and individual. Good equipment. The trip itself is well worth the money. Really cool!!!

We are in our mid fifties and together with our 17 year old son, sis this amazing activity with instructors from K2 adventures ( via Manawa). It was so much fun in a safe way- abseiling down ~7-9m heights of waterfalls in the beautiful Yera Gorge. The jumps, swims, sliding down the rapids all add to the excitement. I felt safe with the clear instructions and the guide of the instructors who demonstrated expertise. One needs a bit of strength and fitness but not necessarily a regular gym workout level. Definitely not for anyone with fear of heights, otherwise, just give it a go!Thanks so much again- Pedro and Carla!
