Full description

Who said canyoning is only a summer activity?

With us, you can experience the thrill of winter canyoning, an evocative adventure amid snow-covered rocks and clear water. Thanks to the waterproof suits, you won't fear the extremely low temperatures: you can slide on the slides and dive into the pools of water while remaining completely dry.

Come and try it out in Val Maggiore, a few kilometres from Belluno: together with our expert guides, you will face an adventurous 3-hour route between rocks and water inside Santa Croce Lake. We are waiting for you!

What we will do

The appointment is at 11.00 a.m. in Ponte nelle Alpi, a few kilometres from Belluno. Here we will meet our guide and begin with a briefing on descent techniques and specific safety rules for winter canyoning.

We will then be equipped with dry suits, harness, helmet and descenders and board the shuttle that will take us to the starting point of our route in about 10 minutes.

After a short walk, we will reach theentrance to the canyon, which winds its way around the picturesque Santa Croce Lake. We will find ourselves immersed in a fairytale environment, where waterfalls and rocks framed by snow will give us the feeling of entering an enchanted world.

The most exciting challenge will be the descent alongside a 30-metre waterfall, with the possibility of admiring the winter landscape behind us. We will feel the adrenalin rush as we rappel down the wall, surrounded by the contrast between the white of the snow and the blue of the water.

We will continue with shorter rappels, natural slides and dives into pools of clear water, always protected by the dry suit that keeps us dry.

After about 3 hours of adventure in the canyon, we will return to the starting point to finish the activity.

Who it is aimed at

The experience is suitable for everyone, even first-time participants. You can participate from 16 to 85 years of age and if you weigh less than 120 kg.
