Canyoning for emergency Rescue teams
Canyoning is the sport of descending steep mountain gorges. Using not only scrambling but abseiling, sliding & jumping. We offer guided canyoning tours specifically for emergency rescue teams. We can offer these tours at a special rate when all participants have their own wetsuits and canyoning suitable footwear.
Minimum Training duration: 2 Days
We do not run "normal" commercial tours like most companies here in Tirol, where customers are lowered down every waterfall. Our guests spend a couple of hours in the morning running through canyoning techniques, including active abseiling, before heading off into a suitable canyon for the afternoon to practice in the wet slippy canyon. The second day will reinforce this training on a canyon with a lot of abseiling sections. All group members will need to run through this training before heading into any advanced canyons.
Advanced canyons
As certified canyoning guides we can offer canyoning tours all over europe and the world. However mostly we go to canyons not too far from home that we know and love.
