This ride has it all for the whole family to enjoy. It runs largely along a wooden footbridge over the Castril River, a suspension bridge and a tunnel. A beautiful natural landscape integrated into the urban structure of the population of Castril.

Hiking

The "Cerrada" of the Castril River
is an impressive ravine that has been formed over time. Using the
walkways attached to the walls, visitors can take a tour high above the river, crossing a suspension bridge until they reach a gallery carved into the rock that leads to a beautiful natural balcony from which to admire the magnificent landscape.
