Everything you need to know about canyoning
Canyoning, or Canyoneering, is an activity that involves traveling the winding course of streams that flow through canyons and rocky gorges. It is often referred to as a mix of mountaineering and water sports because it has elements of both disciplines. A canyoning trail presents natural slides and high rock walls from which to rappel. There are frequently crystal-clear pools to dive into, and sometimes even tunnels and corridors of water to swim through.
Canyoning is a sport for everyone and requires no specific skills or experience. You just need to be in good physical condition, have good aquatics, and choose the course best suited to your level. Canyoning is always practiced with a Mountain Guide who ensures the safety of the participants.
