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.
The standard minimum age is 6 years old for independent participation. Children as young as 4 can join if accompanied by a parent. The calm Class I–II water ensures a safe experience for younger participants.
All children must know how to swim, and adults are expected to supervise and assist them during the rafting activity to ensure safety and enjoyment.
No prior rafting experience is required. The guides provide a full briefing at the start and remain in control of the raft throughout the journey.
This makes the activity suitable for beginners, young children, and families who want to enjoy a safe river experience without previous knowledge or training.
The total duration is approximately 2.5–3 hours, including transport, briefing, and preparation. The rafting itself lasts around 1–1.5 hours, depending on river flow and chosen activities.
This allows plenty of time to enjoy games, slides, and bridges along the route, giving a relaxed and fun experience for all ages.
Participants should wear a swimsuit and bring closed-toe water shoes or booties. A wetsuit, helmet, and life jacket are provided, as the river can be cold even in summer.
A towel, sunscreen, and a change of clothes are recommended for after the rafting. Avoid loose items that could be lost in the water, such as jewellery or watches.
Photos and videos are not included but can be purchased on the day. Guides can advise on options and help capture your family’s adventure.
This gives families the choice to keep memories of their trip without increasing the standard activity cost.
Transportation during the activity is included to and from the river section. Participants must make their own way to the meeting point in Cuevas Bajas.
For groups or family packages, guides can provide additional information about combining transport with other activities or lunch options.
All participants are equipped with a wetsuit, helmet, life jacket, and paddle. Guides carry first-aid kits, and insurance covers civil liability and accidents.
