Initiation course to canyoning.

2-day Canyoning Initiation Course.

On the next 13th and 14th we will do a Canyoning course. Enjoy the course and learn to move through the ravines with autonomy and safety. Organizing the activity, necessary material, escapes, setting up meetings, basic rope progression maneuvers, etc., will be several of the topics to work on. As well as the basic knots that will allow us to progress through both aquatic and dry ravines.

We recommend a course of 3 or 4 days to see all the matter in more detail and better assimilate the concepts, taking the course in two weekends. If you do not have so many days, you can take this 2-day course.

The course will be developed according to the meteorology and the flow rates of the ravines at that time and can be done in both Guara and the Pyrenees.

Enjoy your favorite activities safely!
