Tajo de las Viñas above Lentegí is a K3 ferrata of about 320 metres with 48 metres of height, with iron stems, a lifeline, two hanging bridges, a ladder-to-the-sky, and a pendulum. Your guide issues harness, helmet, dissipating lanyard and pulley and stays with you from the first stem to the walk down.
We meet at the Lentegí ferrata parking and walk about twenty minutes to the start. After a short kit briefing you climb about ten metres on the K3 ladder-to-the-sky to get used to clipping, continue on stems to a four-metre monkey bridge, then cross a twenty-metre Tibetan bridge.
More stems lead to the pendulum and a ledge with a wide view, then you climb back on iron stems to a balcony looking down the valley. The walk back to the cars is about ten minutes, and the whole outing is about three hours. Winter slots usually run from ten until four; summer often uses later starts from midday until six.
Lentegí is a small mountain village on the Granada coast side, with vines on the slopes and a limestone escarpment holding the line. It feels quieter than the better-known gorge walks closer to the city, and you can pair the day with other outdoor time in the village if you are staying on.
We meet at a village or track pin, which we confirm in the days before so we can use the best conditions that week. Signal can thin out on the approach, so save the map pin while you still have coverage, and come in shoes that grip on a twenty-minute walk.
This is an initiation K3 ferrata, so you do not need previous ferrata experience. You should be happy with a bit of exposure and able to keep moving for two to three hours with normal fitness and agility.
Minimum age is 14. We keep groups to six or fewer per guide so you are not queuing on the cable. We take digital photos during the session and can talk through other lines if you want another day out.
We run these cables through the year, so we know which line feels friendly in heat, wind or winter shade. Your guide is a mountain guide who specialises in this kind of day, fits harness, helmet and dissipating lanyard at the car, and talks you through clipping and transitions before anyone steps onto the first stem. Groups stay small enough that someone is watching every lanyard on the bridges and the airier steps.
You will get clear instructions in English or Spanish, a walk-in that does not wear you out before the interesting bits, and digital photos and videos from the line. We would rather shift the start with the season than stand you on the hottest rock or the iciest cable, and we can point you to another ferrata in the province if you have a second day free.
We meet at the Tajo de las Viñas parking, fit harness, helmet, dissipating lanyard and pulley, then walk about twenty minutes to the start. Nobody clips in until the briefing on clipping and transitions is done.
You climb about ten metres on the K3 ladder-to-the-sky, continue on stems to a four-metre monkey bridge, then cross a twenty-metre Tibetan bridge. More stems lead to the pendulum and a ledge with a wide view, then you climb back on iron stems to a balcony looking down the valley.
The path back takes about ten minutes. We return the kit and take digital photos from the balcony. The whole outing is about three hours, including both walks.
Flexible clothing, sun protection, water and snacks for the duration. Approach shoes with grip suit most venues; bring a light waterproof and extra layer for mountain or coastal wind.
You need to be at least 14. We welcome complete beginners, and we are just as happy if you have climbed indoors and want your first proper day on rock around Lentegí. The difficulty is adapted to how you move on the day.
Tell us a bit about your experience when you request a date. We will pick routes that fit you rather than guessing on the morning, and we will keep the briefing in English or Spanish as you prefer.
Most of our open dates are Saturdays and Sundays, which is how we usually run these days through the year. If one of those works, just request a place on that day and we will confirm the meet once it is accepted.
If you would rather go midweek, or only with your own friends, send us a date and how many of you there are. We will check a guide is free and get back to you by chat or email with the plan.
The activity itself is about 3 hours, plus a bit of time at the start for kit and the walk in to the sector. Lunch is a short stop with food you bring, except on indoor course days where we use the gym break.
Start times change with the season and the venue, because we chase shade in summer and sun in winter. Once your date is confirmed we will send the meet time, parking notes and what to bring.
You get a qualified mountain guide who specialises in this kind of day, plus a harness, helmet and ferrata lanyard, and any extra ropes we need on the line. We also take digital photos and videos during the session to send you afterwards.
Meals, drinks, accommodation and getting yourself to the meeting point are down to you. Transport can sometimes be arranged separately if you ask ahead. Bring water and a snack that will last the session.
Wear clothes you can move in, with a layer for wind and a bit of sun cream. Trainers or approach shoes with grip are better than smooth soles, and we ask you not to come in flip-flops, sandals or clogs.
A small rucksack with at least a litre of water is enough for most ferratas. Gloves help on the cables, and sunglasses are useful even in cooler months because the rock reflects a lot of light. A light waterproof and a snack keep you comfortable on the walk out.
It depends on the exact sector near Lentegí and the weather that week. We decide the pin and the arrival time in the days before, so we can use the rock that is in the best condition.
Granada days often start from Plaza Alta in Monachil or a crag car park a few minutes away. Coastal and Alicante routes use a meet point closer to that cliff, and we send clear directions once the date is accepted.
We need dry rock and sensible wind. If it looks poor, we will message you as early as we can and either move venue or look at another day, because forcing a session on wet limestone is not useful for anyone.
High Sierra Nevada faces are the fussiest, and leftover snow or strong wind can close them even in summer. We would rather shift the date than stand around in poor conditions at that height.
If you are happy walking on rocky paths and standing in a harness for a few hours, you will cope with the day. We adapt the routes to how you move, so you do not need a specific indoor grade before you come.
We keep groups to 6 people per guide, so you still get time on the rock and someone watching how you move. That ratio is how we run these days through the year around Lentegí.
Yes. We issue a harness and helmet at the meet, plus climbing shoes or a ferrata lanyard if that is what the day needs. Tell us your shoe size if we ask for it.
You are welcome to use your own harness or helmet if it is CE marked. We will give it a quick check before we start.
Read the meet-time message and give yourself a few extra minutes for parking. A charged phone with the pin saved is enough.
When you book, tell us what you have climbed before. That helps us pick the right ropes and keep the day at a pace you will enjoy.
