Canyon of the Angosturas — Attraction in Benahavís

So this is an amazing experience but please be aware that it is NOT for beginners. The views are fantastic but my wife and I have just got back from here and if we hadn't met some incredible people along the way, we would have had no hope. We are all young and fit people but there are sections when you have to swim for long periods of time so if you're not a confident swimmer then please don't attempt this without a guide. There was supposed to be a rope to help you descend a waterfall but that no longer exists. Again if there wasn't multiple of us, we wouldn't have been able to do this. To end on a good note, this truly was a brilliant experience and I'm so glad that we did it because it feels like an incredible accomplishment. A once in a lifetime thing. To swim through stunning caves was just breathtaking.....

Great day out. Park in the car park on the way to Benahavis then walk up the path to the gate in the fence (about 20 minute walk). All you need is your swimming shorts/ bikini and some old trainers that you don't mind getting wet (flip flops aren't good for this). You start off at a deep pool which you can dive into and then you follow the canyon down back to the car park. It involves some swimming (deep water), a lot of wading and scrambling over rocks. Some fantastic scenery and you feel like you're on a real adventure. We spent about half an hour at the top pool then about an hour and a half making our way down the canyon to the car park. If you're an outdoor kind of person you...

Ciclismo MTB.Ocio y diversión.Paraje natural. Cañón de las Angosturas del río Guadalmina. Es muy bonita hacer esta ruta a través del río,el paisaje es precioso.Hay que tener en cuenta que hay zonas en las no se hace pie y hay que nadar por lo que es necesario llevar una bolsa estanca para llevar las pertenencias. El Cañón de las Angosturas es un estrecho desfiladero por el que desciende el río Guadalmina,este paraje natural está situado en la misma entrada del municipio.

Este río es transitable desde la entrada del pueblo hasta el puente nuevo y es espectacular nadar entre sus angosturas y descender este magnífico espacio natural que tenemos a nuestro alcance.

Empezamos en la Charca de las Mozas, donde muchos se recrean saltando a diferentes alturas y es dónde la mayoría de las personas se quedan. El resto comienza el descenso ya que nos estaríamos perdiendo un lugar maravilloso. Desde aquí nos esperan unas dos horas tranquilas pero intenso descenso por el río y nadando en muchos de los puntos donde cubrirá el agua completamente.

Acabaremos en la Charca de los Tubos, donde también hay acceso a pie y donde podremos recrearnos un poco antes de dar por finalizada la...
