Canyoning Adventure at Fosso della Mola

A day of sport, fun and nature less than 80 km from Rome? With this canyoning descent to the Fosso della Mola is possible!

You will venture into a gorge with slides carved into the rock, abseiling and dives up to 12 metres into the waters of the Salto river, in the province of Rieti.

A fun without limits, within everyone's reach and experienced in the company of an expert guide. Don't miss it!

What we will do

We will meet at 10 a.m. in Casette, in the province of Rieti. We will meet the guide and, after handing over ourequipment and getting dressed, we will set off towards Balzi di Grotti, an area famous for its many crags full of climbing routes.

After about 40 minutes of walking in the Salto river valley , we will reach Fosso della Mola. Before starting the canyoning route proper we will have a briefing on progression techniques and safety rules. And then, off to adventure!

Sections with shallow water will alternate with deep pools, where it will be necessary to dive neck-deep(if the water flow is substantial). As we progress, the gorge will narrow, becoming more and more vertical.

There the most sensational section will begin, with slides, dives and waterfalls. The highest one we will encounter will be 12 metres and will test us with a truly spectacular abseil! We will then continue the route until we pass through a cave and swim across a crystal-clear pool.

The activity lasts a total of four hours, but the time taken to complete the route may vary depending on the flow of water and the number of participants. Upon exiting the canyon, we will be at our cars in just 5 minutes, where we will share the most exciting moments of the experience and say goodbye!

Who it is aimed at

This canyoning excursion is of medium level, but perfectly accessible even to novices. All persons able to swim, from 12 to 65 years of age, can participate.
