Full description
Enough routine: slip into the fun!
With this canyoning in Val di Vara, in the province of La Spezia, you'll experience 2 hours of adrenaline between natural slides, rope descents and swimming in pools of water.
And at the end of the activity, a delicious barbecue awaits you!
What we will do
The appointment is at 9. 30 a. m. at the meeting point in Brugnato (SP) . Awaiting us will be the guide who will provide us with all the necessary equipment: neoprene wetsuit, helmet and life jacket. After dressing, we will board the organisation's vehicles for a transfer of about 10 minutes that will take us to the activity location.
Before going into the water, we will participate in a technical briefing on the safety rules to be observed during the experience. We will then begin the descent of about 5 km, alternating between natural slides, rope descents and pools of water where we can swim. The stops we will make will all have a playful character, except for one of about 15 minutes, which will be dedicated to a mini-training course on flood self-rescue.
We will walk along the Rischia stream bed for about 2 hours, enjoying the view and having fun with our fellow adventurers. Once the descent is over, we will land directly at the rafting centre, with no need for further transfers. Here we can finally regenerate with a hot shower before sitting down at the table and ending the experience with a delicious barbecue of ribs, typical local sausage, polenta, fried potatoes and salad, all accompanied by a quart of wine, water, coffee and a small glass of limoncello.
The activity will last a total of 5 hours, 2 of which will be in water.

The experience is suitable for ages 6 and up; children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
