About this tour

Scale a Gran Canaria rock face using anchored iron rungs and safety lines—all the vertical thrill of climbing without the technical expertise. This four-hour vertical adventure park session has you navigating cave passages and striding across a suspended bridge 60 metres up, capped off by a swing launch from the island's highest point. Small groups keep things manageable, and no prior experience required.

Highlights

  • Iron-rung ascent with fixed safety lines
  • Underground cave passages and rock formations
  • Suspended bridge crossing at 60 metres elevation
  • Final swing launch from Gran Canaria's peak
  • Harness, helmet, and safety gear provided
  • Small group setting, no experience needed

What to expect

You'll be fitted with harness and helmet before heading to the rock face. The route uses anchored metal rungs set into the stone—steady handholds let you move at your own pace upwards. Expect switchbacks through natural cave sections where you'll duck under rock overhangs and navigate narrow passages. The suspended bridge crossing feels exposed but is fully secured; most people find the adrenaline rush addictive rather than terrifying. The grand finale is a pendulum swing that launches you out from the summit. The whole experience takes four hours including kit-up and safety briefing.

Good to know

Arrive 15 minutes early for briefing. Wear closed-toe shoes with good grip. Bring water—the ascent is steady but not relentless. Public transport serves the location; arrange your own lift there. Not suitable if you have spinal issues, are pregnant, or have cardiovascular concerns.
