Suits first-timers with a head for heights; this books the climb, not the boardwalk route. **Best climb:** The climbing alternative: via ferrata walls, two cable bridges and a 30 metre zip line with all gear included, at €200 per group/vehicle per group. 4.97 from 74 reviews. Trade-off: Not the boardwalk route itself. (last checked September 1, 2026) ## Overview This activity takes place in a unique environment, surrounded by rugged mountains and lakes. An adventure in nature full of sensations which highlights the zip line of more than 30 meters and the 2 cable bridges over the void. ## Key facts - Price: from €200 per group/vehicle - Duration: 4h - Rating: 4.97/5 from 74 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Operator: Sendero Sur Aventura ## Tour options Prices are the operator's current list price for two travellers (whole euros); options sold only to bigger parties say so; pick the option on the booking page. | Option | Price | Guide languages | Details | |---|---|---|---| | Open group | €65 per group | Spanish, English | Open group. 3 pax minimum | | 1 person | €175 per group | Spanish, English | Private Guide for 1 person | | 2 people | €200 per group | Spanish, English | Private guide for 2 people | | 3 people | €225 per group | Spanish, English | Private guide for 3 people | | 4 people | €260 per group | Spanish, English | Private guide for 4 people | | 5 people | €325 per group | Spanish, English | Private guide for 5 people | | 6 People | €390 per group | Spanish, English | Private guide for 6 people | ## What's included - Helmet, harness, gloves and anchors ## Schedule - Runs: daily - Departures: 08:00, 09:00 - Schedule last checked: 2026-09-02 - These are published departures, not a live seat count; availability is confirmed at checkout. ## Cancellation For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time. ## Meeting point We will meet in the south parking lot of Caminito del Rey in the neighborhood of El Chorro. ## Good to know - Not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries - Not recommended for pregnant travelers - Not recommended for travelers with poor cardiovascular health - Travelers should have at least a moderate level of physical fitness - Not recommended for people with fear of heights - Not recommended for people with mobility problems or in low form - Not recommended for children under 14 years of age ## How it compares in Day Trips Ranked **#4 of 25** by Guidekin's weighted score (rating weighted by review volume).
