Academia Pradoventura

Everyday life at a Spanish language school in the Andalucian village of Prado del Rey unspoilt by tourism, surrounded by mountainous landscape, natural parks and lakes. Its authentic Andalucian character makes this village our preferred place to live and our students value the friendly attitude of its inhabitants and the familiar atmosphere of our language school. Together with our students we experience interesting, funny and sometimes strange things that we would like to share with you...

Barranco Sima del Diablo

Una aventura muy diferente en la Serranía de Ronda. El barranco es precioso, siempre tiene agua y mucha vegetación. Consiste en tres rápeles, uno de ellos de 10 metros de desnivel que es impresionante y se disfruta mucho de él bajándolo. ¡Cómo nos lo pasamos!

The “Barranco Sima del Diablo” is a small river in the “Serranía de Ronda“ (Ronda Mountains), the “Río de las Zúas”, which has a permanent flow of water during the whole year and forms 4 cascades between 3 and 10 metres deep. That is where we do abseiling. It is not a deep and narrow canyon, but more a mountain river that allows us to get out of the water flow whenever we want.

There are four very attractive abseiling gaps. On the first one we abseil the upper part and then let ourselves slide down into a small pool. The second abseiling gap is the most challenging one. It is a 10 metres deep cascade that forms a bend first and then the water abruptly falls down into a bigger pool. The other two gaps are quite easy to climb down.
