The Ebro, Spain’s longest river, originates from springs in the Cantabrian Mountains and cuts east across the northern expanse of the Burgos province en route to the Mediterranean near Tarragona. It divides the green and mountainous northern region of Burgos – a landscape more characteristic of the autonomous communities that make up “Green Spain” on the Atlantic coast – from the southern flatlands of Burgos that typify Castilla y León. For much of its course the River Ebro is muddy and sluggish, but in pockets, as near the small town of Valdenoceda, it gathers speed in narrow canyons and whips up wild rapids. Rafting Alto Ebrois the main rafting guide service in the town. Ahalf-day rafting trip down the Ebro costs 33 Euro per person. The company also rents canoes for 12 Euro per hour and maintains El Arco, a casa rural with rooms for rent. Valdenoceda is 40 minutes north of Burgos. Take the N-627 north from the city and, after passing Sotopalacios, turn off onto the C-629 in the direction of Peñahorada. Continue on the C-629 as far as its intersection with the N-232, where you’ll find the river and Valdenoceda alongside it.
