Canyoning

A canyoning travel adventure has it all! With amazing naturally crafted canyoning terrain all over the world, you are spoilt for choice when deciding where to canyoneer.

An exhilarating experience, Canyoning (known in the U.S. as canyoneering) involves travelling down creeks or streams within a canyon by a variety of means including walking, scrambling, climbing, abseiling, and swimming. Even an inflatable air mattress can be used! This is known as Li-loing.

Being a canyoneer requires a wide skill set including, but not limited to navigation, ropework, climbing, and swimming.

Typically what separates a canyon from any ordinary stream is the narrow passage created by erosion into bedrock, creating beautiful sculptured walls and spectacular waterfalls.
