A wild adventure through the Río Fraile: hiking, water, and adrenaline among canyons and natural pools just a short drive from Valencia
Wander together, laugh together, and build memories that last beyond the trip
A 6.5 km journey split into two sections: an easy 4 km warm-up followed by a more challenging 2.5 km stretch deeper into the canyon
If you like hiking, water sports, swimming and cliff jumping, this trip is for you. We will take you to enjoy nature, abseiling in the water, jumping off cliffs etc. We will do a river trail which consists of two parts. The first part is not difficult and is 4 km long while the second part is a bit more difficult and is 2,5 km long. In the second part there will be abseiling and you will have to swim to cross the river. The water is usually up to our knees but sometimes we have to swim across pools.
The difficulty of the hike is medium/high. Therefore it is important that you are physically fit.
We recommend you to bring lunch, as the trail is very demanding and there are no restaurants near the starting point.
Important: We are in the middle of nowhere. This means that there is nowhere to shop (apart from a small ecotourism restaurant). There is no telephone network, no internet, only satellite connections).
Avenida Aragón 31, Valencia (In front of Mestalla Stadium) (Google Map)
You’ll receive all the information in the email, so please always check it.
Departure from Mestalla (Avenida de Aragon, 31).
We will arrive at the river site. We will have a break to go to the toilet, have lunch, etc.
We’ve finished our route and we’re going to grab a drink or take another shower before getting on the bus.
We will meet on the bus to go back to Valencia
We will be about 100 km from Valencia and when we say ‘in the middle of nowhere’, we mean that there is no place to buy things, except in a small ecotourism restaurant. There is no telephone network and no internet. Only satellite/phone connection works.
The river will be “divided” into two parts:
The first part is not very difficult and is about 4 km long
The second part, a bit more difficult, is about 2,5 km. In the second part there will be abseiling and you will have to swim most of the time.
The level of the route is medium high and participants should be able to swim well and be physically strong. We are going to walk in a river, normally the water reaches our knees but sometimes we have to go through lagoons and we have to swim. Participants should be physically fit and it is recommended that you have hiking experience.
