Level of difficulty

If you are taking part in a canyoning tour in Switzerland for the first time, we recommend that you take a basics course. The gorges in Ticino are sometimes very challenging, which is why we choose the routes so that even beginners can easily cope with all difficult passages. Our canyoning tours Basic take us into the beautiful gorges of Verzasca Valley, Centovalli or Val Vira.

For families it is advisable to book a canyoning tour from the “Family” offer, as you can go on an adventure tour in Ticino individually or with other families together. Our guides know how to deal with children well, understand how to convey the introductory safety instructions in a child-friendly manner and take great pleasure in seeing how even the youngest participants grow in the challenge.

All courses with a lower level of difficulty have in common that we do not force anyone to do anything. So if you need a little motivation or a helping hand, our canyoning guides are the right companions. If you cannot bring yourself to a jump or a rappel action, then they will accept that and show you how you can take an alternative path to the next challenge, which you will then master with a lot of joy.
