The river is obstructed and so used only by a local tourist boat and canoeists. There is an annual fun rafting competition run by ''the pirates of the tajo''.

An ancient irrigation system for the royal kitchen-gardens and orchards (now farmland) includes channels and a noria waterwheel, recently restored in a leisure area known as Talud Sur (south bank of) de La Montaña de Aranjuez. The old, tree-lined avenues around are maintained provide shady level walkways.
