Pedrete Guiados, an adventure tourism company in the area, runs its introduction to caving activity here: two hours with a guide to go into a real cave, with a helmet and light, no previous experience needed. It is a way of seeing the canyon from the inside, and not just from the river path. Why there are caves here The Río Lobos Canyon has been a natural park since 1985 and protects more than 20 km of a gorge cut into limestone. It is a karst landscape: water dissolves the rock and leaves caves, shafts and sinkholes in the walls and on the moorland. The best known is the Cueva Grande, opposite the San Bartolomé hermitage, which you can enter on your own; the Galiana, on the other hand, is visited with a guide and equipment, because you have to move inside with a helmet and light. What the activity is like The level is introductory and the route is about 200 metres. On the way in, the guide explains the canyon's wildlife and plants, and once inside, how the water has formed the cave and its formations. Special attention is paid to the bats and their biology. The activity lasts two hours, or three if you add the optional abseil, a rope descent booked separately. The company provides approved technical equipment: harness, helmet, headlamp and gloves. You bring the clothing: comfortable and warm, and comfortable footwear with a good sole, because the floor is stone and slippery. It does not publish a minimum age, but it does have a rate for children aged 5 to 10, so it presents it as a family activity. Prices and booking You pay per person depending on the size of the group: 4 to 8 people, €25. 9 or more, €22.50. Children aged 5 to 10, €12. Optional abseil, €5 more per person.

The company does not publish a fixed departure calendar or the exact meeting point: they are agreed when booking. If there are fewer than four of you, ask whether you can join another group. Before and after The guide tells you when booking where to meet and where to park. Before or after, the Park House helps you understand the relief with its large model and the area devoted to the cliffs, and the San Bartolomé hermitage, with the Cueva Grande opposite, is a flat walk from the car parks.
