Description

Canyon with medium difficulty depending on the water level, maximum 10-metre abseils, jumps and slides but with nothing compulsory apart from the fun.

We are exactly halfway across Lake Iseo, below the village of Fonteno, arriving at Riva di Solto.

Having parked the car by the lake, we will walk for about 20 minutes into the woods to the start of the canyon. Here, after getting kitted out and a briefing on how to move, we will begin our descent.

F.A.Q

Can I really go canyoning even if I work in an office all day?
Of course, you are our ideal client; together we'll devise a plan suited to anyone's characteristics and level, ensuring fun comes first.

Are slides and descents mandatory?
Noooo, the only thing that's mandatory is having fun! For every obstacle, we always have at least 2 or 3 solutions to overcome it, so you can choose based on your comfort level.

What equipment is needed?
You will be provided with everything you need: a wetsuit, helmet and harness. You will only need to bring swimwear, trainers (or hiking boots) and a dry change of clothes for afterwards.

How long does the experience last?
The entire activity lasts between 3.5 and 5 hours on average, roughly half a day, including briefing, preparation, and the descent into the canyon, but these times may vary depending on the group's needs.

You can still go canyoning even if you're afraid of jumping.
Yes. Jumps are not compulsory: for almost every obstacle, there's an alternative. The aim is for you to experience it safely and have fun.

To enter the Canyon, do we have to do an ultra trail?
No. Together we will choose the path best suited to your level, with long, short, or very short approaches.
