Full description
Get ready to dive into the wild heart of Liguria! Canyoning in the Rio Lerca, near Genoa, will give you strong emotions in a unique natural environment.
With an expert guide at your side, you will glide through the transparent waters of the canyon, facing 6-metre plunges , natural slides and rope descents.
In 6 hours of activity, including about 3 and a half hours of canyoning, you will explore an unspoilt route in the Beigua Park, just a few steps from the Genoa coastline. Discover your wild side!
What we will do
We will meet at 9:00 a.m. in the hamlet of Case Soprane in Arenzano (GE), where our guide will welcome us and begin with the distribution ofequipment. The approach to the canyon will take about 45 minutes, of which 25 minutes uphill, and will allow us to immerse ourselves in the views that surround us as we head towards the stream.
Once we arrive at the start of the route, we will spend about 20 minutes on the safety briefing and dressing up. We will then begin our descent into the canyon, in a sun-kissed section carved into the green-striped rock typical of the Serpentines of Beigua Park.
We will explore this wild corner of paradise by tackling small slides, a fun toboggan , and some rope descents, the highest of which is about 10 metres. There will also be dives from different heights (never compulsory), the highest of which is about 6 metres.
At the end of the descent, which will take about 3½ hours, we will return to the starting point by covering a flat stretch of about 10 minutes.
The total duration of the experience will be about 6 hours, including briefing, approach time and return.

The activity is suitable from the age of 15. Minors must be accompanied by a responsible adult.
