BASIC CANYONING COURSE

BASIC CANYONING COURSE

If you have a group of friends who want to explore a new dimension, try a new sport, or make new friends, but you do not have any mountaineering experience, then you have come to the right place!
Canyoning is an exciting and dynamic activity that does not require any specific physical training but does need a good understanding of technical rope manoeuvres. With its unpredictable contexts and the significant presence of water, canyoning is very different from traditional mountaineering.

DAYS
3 days during the week
or
a full weekend + following Saturday / Sunday
