For those new to canyoning, Vira is a great place to start, join us in a fun adventure in Ticino.
Canyoning is a type of outdoor recreation that involves hiking, climbing, abseiling, swimming, and even cliff jumping in a natural setting. Canyoning is all about exploring remote natural areas by primarily following a water route down through a variety of natural rock formations.
This experience is appropriate for families with small children. It has two small slides, three jumps, and two abseils. Almost everything is repeatable, so the kids can run around and have fun.
Because it is a low-water canyon, even people with limited swimming abilities can enjoy it.
Children or adults come to have fun!
