Description
This canyoning tour takes you through Iragna Intermedio and Iragna Inferiore. The entry point is in the middle section of the gorge. From there, the adventure starts with slides and jumps. Then it continues through a distinctive canyon featuring emerald-green pools, white gneiss, and tall waterfalls.
Along the way, you'll find many natural slides, optional jumps, and high abseil spots. Especially impressive are the narrow 15-meter slide and waterfalls up to 40 meters high. The canyon is aimed at sporty participants who can move confidently in challenging terrain.
