Mindblowing canyoning adventure for canyoning-enthusiasts: One of the greatest gorges of Europe leads you into a mystical world of water and rock.

Imposing rock walls, deeply cut pools and impressive narrow gaps: The gorge in Val Lodrino takes you into a foreign and fascinating world of rock, water and light. This is one of the world’s most beautiful and challenging canyons, full of action and beauty, suitable only for fit and experienced canyoning fans.

Lodrino is a highly technical canyon with high abseils (up to 50m), long and speedy slides through deep rock grooves, and high jumps of all sorts. In between you find quiet passages with deep pools for relaxation and refocusing. The transitions between the darkness of the rock fissures and the light in the more open pools will be unforgettable: a world so remote and foreign that time stands still and the “real life” outside will pause to exist.
