Canyoning

Canyoning is a beautiful combination of a variety of outdoor sports. During a canyoning trip, you hike to the start of the canyon. Here, you enter the canyon and while walking/hiking, sliding and abseiling you get through the canyon. Abseiling from a high waterfall, followed by jumps in deep waters and of course natural waterslides in beautiful surroundings complete your trip.

Based on a few cool canyoning trips during the year you learn the basics of this sport. You will learn about:

Moving forward with a rope
Moving forward without a rope
Swimming in wild water
Risk management
Origins of canyons
Anchor points and hooks
Material knowledge
Tour planning and preparation
Canyoning casuistry and self-sufficiency
