Canyoning is a water discipline that involves the exploration of ravines, which are narrow rock gorges through which mountain streams flow. Accompanied by a guide, you descend on foot along the watercourse. During the activity, you may encounter waterfalls and rock walls to be overcome by abseiling, just to later enjoy a dip in natural pools and have fun getting carried away by the current of the slides.
Canyoning is practiced in groups and has different levels of difficulty. There are easy routes that can be practiced even by families with children, and much more challenging routes suitable only for sportsmen. The activity is conducted by certified mountain guides and meets all safety standards.
To go canyoning, you wear a neoprene wetsuit, which is provided by the outdoor center, along with a helmet, ropes and harness. Participants are asked to wear a swimsuit, thermal shirt and hiking shoes you’re fine with getting wet.
All sides of Lake Garda have suitable locations for canyoning. Near Riva del Garda in Trentino, Italy, the Rio Nero and Rio Palvico rivers offer numerous trails of varying difficulty. Canyoning in Brentino, on the other hand, is the most convenient choice for those coming from Verona. Finally, Lombardy also offers several possibilities with the Vione Stream in Tignale and the San Michele Stream in Campione, both in the province of Brescia.
Canyoning is a very fun water adventure for young children to experience. Among the canyoning routes on Lake Garda suitable for children, there are the San Michele Stream and some sections of the Vione and Rio Nero Streams that feature small rock jumps and easier rappels.
The easier routes do not turn out to be boring for adults. On the contrary, they are also very atmospheric and can be a good way to share carefree and exciting moments with the whole family.
Canyoning experiences on Lake Garda cost between 44 and 99 euros per person. The price varies according to location, length and type of route. Equipment and the guide are always included in the registration fee.
Gift a fun adventure in nature for all to enjoy. A canyoning course is a perfect gift idea for birthdays and other celebrations. You can gift it to friends or family members to share a memorable experience with them!

This was our third time we went canyoning in Italy. First time was in Sicily, second in Tuscany, and now in Trentino. This was by far the most challenging. The hike at the beginning was a little harder than we expected. It was quite steep and long. With the wetsuit on, it’s the least enjoyable. The route down was beautiful. High jumps or abseil routes (you can choose). Not many slides. Personally I wouldn’t recommmend this route as a first time experience. We were with a family that went for the first time, but they thought it was a little too challenging. Overall it’s a great experience but you need good stamina for the walk at the beginning. One thing that was a pity, was that the gopro we rented did not work (the sd card failed). Of course we didn’t have to pay. But still it’s a pity we couldn’t take any pictures or shoot any film.

A wonderful experience. Thomas, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable and constantly put us at ease by explaining all the complicated steps in all the languages necessary to be understood by the group. We also immediately bonded with the other guys in the group and made new friends. Highly recommended choice for sharing experience with strangers who quickly become friends! The difficulty is consistent with the indications, 3 out of 5. Ideal for really spending an alternative day
