No. The open kayak is a stable model built for beginners. The qualified guide spends the first few minutes on paddling technique: how to hold the paddle, how to correct your line and what to do if you capsize. Most people find their confidence within the first 100 metres.

From age 10 with an adult, provided they can swim. For younger children we recommend other Cabriel options in our catalogue: rafting is accessible from age 8 in a shared raft with the guide directing the line.

Kayaking is solo: each participant paddles their own boat and sets their own line. Rafting uses an inflatable raft for 6–8 people with a guide on board. The canoraft is a two-person inflatable canoe, a hybrid format between kayaking and rafting. Kayaking demands more independence and technique.

The descent runs through the Hoces del Cabriel Natural Park, a Biosphere Reserve. The landscape is limestone canyons with riverside woodland of poplars and willows; between rapids you may spot birds of prey circling the cliff faces and, with luck, otters on the bank.

Swimsuit, towel, change of clothes for afterwards and footwear that can get wet (no flip-flops). RocRoi provides wetsuit, helmet, buoyancy aid, paddle and kayak.

It is a two-person inflatable craft, more stable than a rigid kayak but just as agile. It carries two paddlers with double-blade paddles and allows you to set your own line through the rapids. It is a hybrid format between a solo canoe and a rafting raft, designed for beginner whitewater.

Rafting uses an inflatable raft for 6–8 people with a guide on board directing the line. The open kayak is solo, one person per boat. The canoraft is two-person: both paddlers coordinate in the same canoe with no guide on board, following guides who accompany the group from separate craft.

From age 8 with an adult, provided they can swim. It is one of the most family-friendly descents on the Cabriel: the adult steers from the back and the child paddles in the front of the same canoe.

No. The two-person inflatable canoe is very stable and designed not to capsize easily. The qualified guide spends the first few minutes on paddling technique and coordination between the two paddlers. Learning the basics in those first minutes is more than enough to enjoy it.

Swimsuit, towel, change of clothes for afterwards and footwear that can get wet (no flip-flops). RocRoi provides wetsuit, helmet, buoyancy aids, paddles and canoe.

The Tamayo stretch is a beginner run. The rapids are calibrated so that anyone in normal health can enjoy it, and the qualified guide steers the raft at all times. The descent begins with a clear technical briefing: how to hold the paddle, how to sit and what to do if you fall in. No previous experience required.

From age 8 with an adult, provided they can swim. It is one of the most accessible rafting options in the RocRoi catalogue for families: the 8 km Tamayo stretch combines beginner-level rapids with calm sections where the group catches its breath.

The Albergue Hoces del Cabriel in Venta del Moro is approximately one hour by car from Valencia. It is the closest whitewater adventure from the city in a protected Biosphere Reserve setting.

RocRoi provides wetsuit, helmet and certified buoyancy aid — all checked after every outing — as well as paddle and raft. You only need to bring swimsuit, towel, footwear that can get wet (no flip-flops) and a change of clothes for after the shower at the hostel.

The full activity takes approximately 4 hours, including gear distribution, technical briefing, transfer to the put-in point, descent of the Tamayo stretch and return to base. Effective time paddling on the river is around 2 hours.

It is K3 grade, a beginner-to-intermediate route that combines vertical sections with a Tibetan bridge. The official scale runs from K1 (very easy) to K6 (extreme). K3 is physically demanding but accessible with no prior climbing or via ferrata experience.

No. The route is secured by a continuous safety line and the iron rungs distribute effort between arms and legs, like climbing a vertical ladder. No climbing technique required. The qualified guide gives the briefing before you start.

From age 8 with an adult. It is one of the most accessible via ferratas for introducing children to vertical terrain: the rungs are within reach and the adult can follow right behind, supervising every clip.

A certain amount of respect is perfectly normal, especially on the Tibetan bridge. If vertigo is severe, this activity is not recommended. If it is moderate, the qualified guide accompanies you at the most exposed points and teaches you to focus on the wall rather than the drop.

RocRoi provides helmet, harness and via ferrata lanyard with energy absorber. You need to bring sports shoes with a good sole or hiking boots (no flip-flops) and appropriate sports clothing for the weather.

It feels like a quick pinch. With the camouflage overalls, protective mask, neck guard and minimum safety distance, the adrenaline means you barely notice during the game. You might have a small mark afterwards, but it fades within a couple of days.

From age 17 with an adult companion, and from age 18 independently. The outdoor paintball at Venta del Moro is designed for groups from that age upwards, given the power of the markers and federation safety rules.

RocRoi provides a semi-automatic marker, protective mask, camouflage overalls, neck guard and 100 paintballs per player. You need to bring sports clothing you don't mind getting paint on, and sports shoes with good grip or hiking boots.

Up to 100 people. The field and technical equipment are set up for large groups, making this one of the few paintball venues in the Valencia area capable of hosting large stag and hen dos, corporate team-building events or whole school year groups.

Stag and hen dos, corporate team building, birthday groups from age 17, large group get-togethers and weekend activities in the Cabriel area. If you want to combine it with another activity (rafting, canyoning, via ferrata), it can be arranged from the same base.

No. The boards are wide and stable, designed for beginners. The qualified guide spends the first minutes on body position and basic technique: how to kneel to start and how to stand up. Most people find their confidence within the first 100 metres.

A tumble is likely, especially when standing up for the first time. But the water on the middle reaches of the Cabriel is clear and clean, so any fall feels more like a voluntary swim than a scare.

From age 14 with an adult companion. It is a beginner route on calm water, ideal for a first experience of stand-up paddle without the challenges of SUP on open sea.

River SUP is done on calm water with no swell or undertow. The board moves at your pace and the feeling of stability is greater. The Cabriel is also crystal clear — you can see the riverbed, which you cannot do at sea.

RocRoi provides a SUP board, paddle, buoyancy aid and wetsuit if needed. You need to bring swimwear, a towel, a change of clothes for afterwards and footwear that can get wet (flip-flops not permitted).

Yes. It is a beginner canyon designed for families from age 14 with an adult. All jumps are optional, qualified guides supervise every step and the pace adapts to the group. The only essentials are swimming ability and no severe vertigo.

No. All jumps are optional. When you reach an obstacle that involves a jump, the guide also explains the easy way down — via the rock face or the side of the pool. Each participant decides at their own pace.

Las Chorreras del Cabriel charges an eco-tax of €5 per participant, payable on-site and not included in the activity price. It is a site management fee paid at the ticket desk before the route begins.

During the route. The guide photographs the key moments: natural slides, jumps and turquoise pools. The digital report is handed over at the end of the descent, included in the price at no extra cost.

Swimsuit, closed sports footwear with good grip that can get wet (no flip-flops), lycra or thermal top to wear under the wetsuit, towel and change of clothes for afterwards. RocRoi provides the wetsuit and helmet.

The Cueva de las Maravillas is a beginner route with mostly spacious chambers, but it also passes through narrower stretches where you need to crouch. If claustrophobia is severe, this activity is not recommended. If it is moderate, let us know in advance and the qualified guide will adapt the pace and stay close to you.

From age 8 with an adult. It is a highly visual and safe activity for young participants: discovering stalactites, stalagmites and cathedral-like chambers by head-torch light almost always feels like an explorer's expedition.

Bats are the cave's natural inhabitants and can be seen hanging from the ceiling, especially in the higher sections. They are harmless and their space is respected throughout the route. The guide points out where they are and explains their ecological role.

RocRoi provides a high-power head torch helmet and, where the cave requires it, protective overalls. You need to bring sports clothing that you don't mind getting dirty, sports shoes with a good sole that can get wet, and spare footwear for afterwards.

The full activity lasts approximately 3 hours 30 minutes including equipment handout, technical briefing, approach and return. The actual time spent underground exploring the cave is approximately 3 hours.
