One of the stellar adventure sports activities in the Llanada Alavesa is ravine descent Cueva de la Leze, a wonder of nature that combines hiking through a beautiful beech forest, canyoning and caving in the same activity. The Artzanegui stream runs through the beautiful forests of the Altzania mountains and in the Hoya de la Leze it sneaks into the interior of the mountains through a huge cavity excavated in the karstic subsoil of the mountain by the current of water. The underground torrent runs through the interior of the mountains for about five hundred meters, developing an extraordinary sports canyon with waterfalls and waterfalls until it comes out again through a mouth one hundred meters high, near the houses of Ilarduia, in the Alava municipality Aspárrena, on the border between Guipuzkoa and Navarra. In autumn the flow is low, compared to the level it can reach in spring, and the water temperature is cold. In any case, complete canyoning equipment is necessary, two 25-meter ropes, complete and thick neoprene (4/5 mm) there are several deep pools, jumps, slides, a siphon before the start and between ten and twelve rappels, some of three meters, depending on the level of the water and the ability of the canyoners to climb down some sections. The lighting equipment is essential, the darkness is absolute, you have to take good waterproof and submersible headlamps.

This fresh water point is a treasure on days when the heat is stifling.
