Thrilling Canyoning at Barranco del Infierno with OK Aventuras

Tucked into the rugged interior of Spain’s Comunidad Valenciana, just outside Denia, the Barranco del Infierno offers canyoning adventure with a distinctive geological twist. This narrow gorge, carved by the Girona River, showcases striking white rock formations that resemble a moonscape more than a typical canyon wall. Over centuries, the river’s persistent flow has etched steep, smooth walls that beckon canyoning enthusiasts looking for a blend of natural beauty and adrenaline-fueled activity.

OK Aventuras specializes in guiding visitors through this dramatic ravine, delivering a canyoning experience that caters to beginners and intermediate adventurers alike. The route is primarily dry, making it accessible year-round, yet during rainy seasons, the gorge transforms — flowing water raises both the technical demands and the thrill factor. Rappels here are straightforward, maxing out around 12 meters, which is perfect for newcomers getting their first taste of vertical descent.

Beyond the physical challenge, the Barranco del Infierno stands out because of its lunar-like terrain and the striking contrast between bright white rock and the lush greenery clinging to the canyon edges. This blend of landscape and technical adventure makes it a rare find in the region. OK Aventuras enhances the journey with professional guides, essential safety gear, and the local knowledge that enriches every step of the trip.

This canyon offers visitors an opportunity to engage with Spain’s interior landscape away from the coastlines, providing a refreshing alternative to typical hiking or climbing excursions in the Alicante area. With a group size limit of eight, the experience stays intimate, allowing for personalized attention and a deeper connection to the environment.

Whether you’re new to canyoning or seeking a manageable yet visually stunning descent, Barranco del Infierno with OK Aventuras promises a memorable day of adventure marked by unique geological features and immersive natural surroundings.
