Canyoning Pays Basque / Aneto Aventura organises outings in the inland Basque Country and Valcarlos/Luzaide, just across the Spanish border. There are two introductory routes for families, followed by more demanding outings for experienced participants.
Which route should you choose?
- Jeux aquatiques: from age 10, a family option focused on swimming, jumps and slides.
- Jeux de cordes: from age 12, around 3 hours including logistics, with a 45-minute approach, small jumps, swimming, abseils and slides.
- Sportier outings and canyons in Aragon are also available for those wanting to go further.
What to know before visiting
You need to be comfortable in water. Technical equipment is provided according to the option. The main season runs from May to early September, with conditions strongly dependent on water levels.
A practical tip
The operator works from Luzaide / Valcarlos, in Spanish Navarre, across the border from Bidarray. Bring identification and check the exact meeting point before setting off.
An extra touch
The Jeux de cordes option is ideal if you really want to learn basic abseiling: it goes beyond a simple river walk while remaining suitable for a first experience.
