About this experience
Autonomy is the key word! Our certified guides from IcoPro (International Canyoning Organization For Professionals) will provide you with an authentic canyoning experience, granting tourists in the program full control during rappelling sessions. Hand control during descent will be in your hands, offering you a much more enjoyable experience than the traditional "salamy" descent method (where guides lead you on a rope and you do nothing).
Throughout the entire route, you will have additional assurances, managed exclusively by the team of guides. Thus, regardless of circumstances, you will be secured and safely stopped in case you encounter difficulties during rappelling sessions.
Exclusive small group tour!
