Activity description
Live a thrilling experience down the rapids of Mijares River in Montanejos, near Castellón. Enjoy the adventure with all your family and friends!
The upper stretch of the Mijares river offers an initiation whitewater descent with several class II rapids. The surroundings of the Upper Mijares are of great beauty and natural value. We will enter the river at La Monzona, a village in Puebla de Arenoso and we will finish the descent at the tail end of the Arenoso reservoir.
Learn how to maneuver the kayak, cross the rapids and land on the shores. This is an excellent group activity that you can share with your family and friends. Depending on the flow, you will make two runs or a long descent with the kayak to the dam of Arenós.
The experienced guides will accompany you all the way down, helping you improve your techniques and movements. Throughout your adventure, your instructor will take photographs that you will be able to download for free.
