Canyoning Los Azulejos de Veneguera, Rainbow Mountains of Mogan

Los Azulejos canyoning: explore beyond the hiking trail

Colourful volcanic mountains, natural rock pools and the excitement of descending a canyon: this is canyoning in Los Azulejos de Veneguera with RockNatour.

Your adventure starts with a hike into the landscape, followed by a practical briefing to introduce the equipment and techniques. Then it’s time to follow the canyon, tackle three abseils and discover opportunities to jump into the water from different heights.

Every jump is optional. Choose the jumps you feel comfortable with, skip those you don’t and enjoy the adventure with guidance throughout.

If you’re looking for canyoning in Gran Canaria that combines spectacular scenery, water jumps and the chance to learn something new, Los Azulejos brings all three together.

Looking for the Los Azulejos pools hike?

Perhaps you first discovered this place while searching for the Azulejos pools, the Los Azulejos hike or the colourful mountains of Veneguera. Our guided canyoning experience takes that curiosity a step further.

The hike is the beginning of the adventure. After reaching the canyon and learning the essential techniques, you’ll explore it through abseiling, moving over rock and optional jumps into its pools.

This is a great choice if you like the idea of visiting the Los Azulejos pools and want an active experience with more variety than a walk. Expect a canyoning adventure involving ropes and uneven terrain, with time to enjoy the landscape along the way.

Three abseils and optional water jumps

The route includes three rope descents, each offering a chance to practise your technique and grow more confident.

Along the canyon, you’ll also find water jumps from different heights. Your guide will explain the options and assess the conditions before each jump. You decide whether to take part: jumping is never compulsory.

Move through sculpted volcanic rock, enjoy the natural pools and experience the mountains of Veneguera from inside the canyon.

A first canyoning experience—or your next step forward

New to canyoning? We’ll explain how to use the equipment, introduce the basics of abseiling and guide you through each descent. You don’t need previous canyoning experience, but you should feel comfortable with an active outing on uneven ground.

Already have experience? Use the route to refine your abseiling, improve your rope handling and develop your movement through the canyon. Our guides will help you build on what you already know, making the experience an opportunity to learn as well as explore.
