Canyoning in Courmayeur, Aosta Valley

Canyoning is a fast growing, adventure sport, fusing 'rock & water' where mountaineering and white water skills are necessary to explore the hidden gorges and ravines around Courmayeur and Aosta Valley.  Equipped with a thick wetsuit, life jacket, canyoning harness, rubber booties and a helmet, get ready to abseil (rappel), jump and slide down waterfalls (tobogganing), rock and cliff jumping etc. A sport that engages every part of your body, where your adrenaline soars and team spirit grows.

Expeditions take place during the months of May till September

Canyoning can be dangerous and we recommend hiring a specialist guide in canyoning to accompany you or enrol in one of the many canyoning schools.
