    If you've already done rappelling and some water tours, this option is perfect for a unique experience. Located in the Potrero Redondo ejido in the municipality of Satiago Nuevo Leon, you'll enjoy the wonders of nature and its formations in the canyon. On this adventure, you'll go trekking, swim with a vest, and go rappelling. Enjoy the turquoise water pools, slides, jumps into the water, and 7 rappels of 10, 30, 35, 48, 30, 45, and 50 metres, some through waterfalls that will leave you with a great experience. Our adventure begins at the Hotel Cola de Caballo, which will be our meeting point, and from here the transport will be by off-road vehicle. We will travel for an hour and a half on a dirt road through the mountains until we reach the Potrero Redondo ejido, where we will have a light breakfast and begin the preparation time for each person with their gear needed to enjoy this adventure. Now the thirty-minute hike begins, among pines and green areas that will remain forever in your memory. Once this hike through the canyon is over, you will reach the top of the first 10-meter rappel to warm up, an adventure of 4 more extras. From here, there are more rappels, pools, slides, and fun. You'll take some time to rest a bit and have a snack. Your sixth and seventh rappels are the ones that will leave you with an unforgettable experience, since they are done right next to a waterfall that is 110 metres high. In the last one, you'll end up in a large turquoise pool between huge walls in the mountains. To finish, there's a no less challenging uphill hike of about an hour to bring your adventure in the canyon to an end. Once finished, you'll arrive at the vehicle area to get your dry and comfortable clothes and enjoy a well-deserved meal with a delicious regional dish. A 1.5-hour drive awaits us to reach the Hotel Cola de Caballo, which was our meeting point.
