Description

Context The Granada Geopark, designated a UNESCO Global Geopark, spans over 47 municipalities and features striking landscapes such as deep canyons, fairy chimneys, and badlands. Located in the Sierra de Baza, this area offers a near-lunar terrain with dramatic rock formations and river valleys, ideal for discovering Andalusia’s geology and biodiversity. The Segway tour takes place within this protected natural space, blending outdoor adventure with cultural heritage.

The Experience You begin with a hands-on training session to safely operate the off-road Segway, equipped with self-balancing technology. Then, glide silently across unique geological formations while listening to expert commentary from your guide. The wind carries the scent of thyme, and the quiet hum of the Segway lets you hear birdsong clearly. Over three hours, you traverse river valleys, spot real eagles and griffon vultures in flight, and visit actual filming locations from the movie Intemperie, with red-hued hills and barren terrain.

Who It’s For This tour is ideal for visitors over 12 years old with basic balance, beginners to Segway, and those with limited mobility who can control the vehicle. No prior experience is needed, and physical demands are low. However, it is not suitable for children under 12 or for individuals with severe balance issues or fear of electric vehicles.

Local Context The Sierra de Baza and surrounding region preserve traditions like transhumance and feature visible historical heritage, including the Alcazaba of Baza and the Arab Baths of La Marzuela. The local community actively supports conservation efforts, integrating culture, nature, and film into this unique experience.
