At Enoaventura we work under an idea that encompasses the best leisure options in Rioja Alvesa. Aware that this land is synonymous with good wines and magnificent natural spaces, we think that there is nothing better than combining under the same group of professionals the possibility of you being able to discover the wines of this Designation of Origin while learning about outdoor sports.
The proposals with which we will open your senses can be based on one or more of these modalities:
- Wine tourism and oleotourism: knowing the preparation of each product in detail, starting with its cultivation and harvesting to ending with the tasting of the final product to value it in all its essence.
- Hiking: we will go on foot through places of minimal or medium difficulty. We will travel through itineraries where we will find ourselves in Laguardia, León Dormido or Virgen de la Rosa, among others.
- Cycle tourism: the passion for mountain biking increases with the vision of places such as the Oja River Greenway.
- Birding: the animals here respond to the call of a home abundant in vegetation and thanks to this we can dedicate ourselves to bird watching, something we can do on foot or by bicycle.
- Kayak: we will paddle the Ebro River along the Puente or Póveda promenades, with minimum times of 90 minutes.
- Extreme adventure: climbing ridges and ridges that are a meeting point for fans of rock walls, descending the Bocino or Istora ravines, or visits to the Basaura or Akuandi caves.< /p>

In the surroundings of the Rioja Alavesa region, there are a dozen ravines that at Enoaventura we have tested and analyzed so that you can now descend them in our company.
Usually, these tours along the river bed consequently have water throughout the entire adventure. We will wear a wetsuit so that the water temperature is bearable. With this, in addition to a helmet and some safety measures that are necessary so that you can go relaxed, we will get to know the ravines of:
- The Leza Canyon: it is the one we recommend the most for beginners in this modality. We will leave Soto de Cameros and it will take us 4 hours to finish.
- Barranco de Pedroso: we continue with an acceptable level of difficulty although it increases a little compared to the previous one. Of the same typology we also find Bocino or Foz de Isora, varying the departure points from Pedroso, to Brieva de Cameros or San Vicente de Arana.
- Artazul and Licebar: in both we prefer that you are used to moving between the usual challenges that the canyons present us because they are classified for a level of improvement. Both are reached from Nacedero de Arteta.
Canyoning is done in groups. Normally we recommend 6 participants to start, always all in charge of the guide who will indicate how to take each step.

At Enoaventura we have the firm conviction that the Rioja Alavesa, as everyone's cultural heritage, has to be disseminated as it deserves. For this reason, our conception of wine tourism involves a deep respect for the production of these wines, which must be understood as a whole. This implies knowing the grape from the moment the vine is planted until it reaches the table under the most recognized labels among experts.
We present you with participatory experiences and walks through the vineyards, wineries and tasting spaces. We will do it actively, you can even step on the grapes, so that from now on you can go from just drinking the wine to seeing beyond the glass. Some ideas that you can ask us for are:
- We will begin the experience with an introduction, seeing the landscape of the vineyards on the banks of the Ebro, from the Balcony excavated hundreds of years ago, for winemaking and we will learn all the secrets of the traditional process and its evolution. We can complement the experience with tastings and appetizers of foods that are also native.
- Days in which the involvement of visitors is prioritized. We will approach the vineyard to learn about its particularities in situ and participate in the viticulture work, learning about the vine in the field itself. We will have lunch respecting the open-air country style. You will take home a personalized bottle of wine as a gift.
