In the Canal de Castilla we have all the necessary facilities to develop various outdoor activities such as boat trips, kayaking or canoeing .
The canal, built in the 18th century during the Enlightenment, was intended to commercially connect Castilla with the northern ports. Its large dimensions currently allow us to reuse these facilities for recreational use.
It is located in an unbeatable natural setting where you can enjoy a beautiful landscape that has become the habitat of many species. Without a doubt, nature in its purest form.
If you visit our headquarters we will be happy to provide you with information about the activities that you can do on our channel.

We also have information on the surrounding towns, an alternative to finish off a family day out.
We hope to see you soon in our town, you deserve to know it.
