This rafting experience takes you along the calmer section of the Genil River, ideal for families and beginners. Participants navigate the river in an inflatable raft with a trained guide, enjoying games, slides, and playful activities along the way. Children must know how to swim, but no prior rafting experience is needed.
The activity begins with a safety briefing and gear fitting, including wetsuit, helmet, life jacket, and paddle. Your guide explains how to navigate the raft, ensuring everyone understands the basics before starting. The calm section of the river allows children and adults to enjoy the experience together safely.
Along the way, participants can take part in fun activities such as sliding into the river, jumping from a bridge when water levels allow, or riding a horse nearby. The pace is relaxed, giving families time to enjoy the scenery, play games, and interact with the river environment.
After the rafting, you return to the base facilities where showers, restrooms, and changing areas are available. Optional photos or videos can be purchased on-site, and there are opportunities to combine the activity with lunches or multi-adventure packages.
The family rafting section is located in Cuevas Bajas, Málaga, offering calm waters suitable for children and beginners. The surrounding area is scenic, with riverbanks, greenery, and small hills providing a pleasant backdrop for a safe, enjoyable activity.
The base facilities are easily accessible, with parking and equipment storage. Cuevas Bajas is around one hour from Granada, Córdoba, and Málaga, making it suitable for a half-day family trip or a longer multi-activity experience with meals included.
Children must know how to swim, and all participants should be comfortable in water. Adults accompanying young children help ensure a safe and fun experience for the whole family.
Participants should bring a swimsuit, towel, sunscreen, closed-toe water shoes or booties, and a change of clothes for after the activity. Being in reasonable health helps everyone enjoy the rafting safely, though no prior experience is necessary.
The activity is guided by trained professionals with full safety equipment, including wetsuits, helmets, and life jackets. Civil liability and accident insurance are included, and first-aid kits are available at all times.
The location is ideal for families seeking safe river fun, with the pace and activities tailored to children and adults alike. Multi-activity packages and full-day options allow for a personalised experience that suits different ages and interests.
