Full description
Get ready for a dynamic and enthralling canyoning route and discover the wild nature of the Orco Valley, with its streams flowing through deep rocky gorges.
Approximately 1 hour from Turin, in the municipality of Locana, a thrilling water adventure awaits you on the Rio Vallungo: natural slides, dives, abseiling and lots of adrenaline!
Thanks to the support of our expert guides, everyone will be able to try the canyoning experience and have fun in close contact with the environment!
What we will do
We will meet the guides and the rest of the group in the main square of Locana (TO). From there we will reach, each by our own means, the mouth of the canyon. Time to put on our wetsuits and a briefing on progression techniques and safety rules, and we will be ready for adventure!
The canyoning route on the Rio Vallungo includes all the typical elements of canyoning: abseiling along waterfalls and rock walls from 8 to 12 metres, natural slides and dives into crystal-clear pools from a maximum height of 8 metres.
Everything will take place in maximum safety thanks to the support of expert guides who will follow us in every movement and help us if we encounter difficulties. At the end of the adventure we will have surpassed our limits and experienced new and unforgettable emotions!
In total, the activity will last about 3½ hours. After the route, we will return to the cars to change and settle in, and if we wish, we can finish with a lunch all together in one of the local trattorias (not included in the participation fee).
