About this activity

Sima del Diablo runs through the Genal Valley and combines four waterfalls with natural rock slides, building up to its signature feature: a 12-metre rappel known locally as the 'Devil's Leap'. It's still beginner-friendly — no previous canyoning experience is required — but has a bit more scale and commitment than Guadalmina, making it a good next step.
