Horizon Naturaleza y Aventura

Who they are

Horizon Naturaleza y Aventura is the brand of Horizon Grazalema S.L., based on calle Las Piedras in Grazalema. It presents itself as the first active tourism company in the province of Cádiz, backed by its number in the Andalusia Tourism Register: AT/CA/00001. From the village, in the heart of the Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park, it guides activities in the Cádiz sierra and in the Serranía de Ronda and other parts of the province of Málaga.

What they do and where

Canyoning is their best-known activity: the Garganta Verde in Zahara de la Sierra, the Sima del Diablo, the Tajo de Ronda, the río Verde, the arroyo Majales, Jorox or the Buitreras canyon. They also guide via ferratas in the Serranía, such as those at Benaoján (with a children's version), Montejaque, Atajate, Benalauría, Benadalid, Jimera de Líbar, the Hacho de Gaucín or the Tajo de Ronda, as well as El Chorro. For caves they work the Cueva del Gato, the Cueva de las Excéntricas, the Fuensanta and the Cueva del Agua in Archidona. Among the trails of the natural park are the Pinsapar, the Torreón, the Majaceite, the Sierra del Endrinal, the Llanos de Rabel, and the Simancón and Reloj. The offering is completed by kayaking on the Bornos reservoir, multi-adventure in Grazalema, activities for families, school trips, team building and parties.

Many water activities are seasonal: canyons depend on water flow and park permits, which the company handles when the route requires them, as in the Garganta Verde. It also publishes a calendar of activities on its website.

How they work

For each activity it publishes distance, ascent, difficulty, duration, minimum age, language, meeting point, minimum group and price. Departures are from two people and in Spanish or English; the meeting point is at the place of the activity, so you need your own vehicle. The minimum age depends on the activity: canyoning in the Garganta Verde, for example, is from age 12 and minors go with an adult. On canyons it includes guide, civil liability and accident insurance, first aid kit, helmet, harness, wetsuit, ropes, bags and dry barrels, and a photo report. Each participant brings a swimsuit, footwear in good condition that can get wet, water and some food, a sandwich for afterwards and dry clothes to change into.
