Description

Join me on on this canyoning trip for beginners and discover this amazing activity!

Canyoning involves a combination of walking, scrambling, swimming, abseiling and jumping to travel through a canyon. If you’ve never tried it before, I’ll take you to a great spot for beginners!

This canyon is easily accessible and does not require any special skills. However, you’ll have a blast in its slides, diving chutes and short roped descents. The route takes from 2.5 to 3 hours to complete.

We will meet directly in Bodengo, which is just an hour away by car from Domaso (see “Meeting Point” for further instructions).

This half-day canyoning trip is ideal for families (10 years old and over) and groups of friends. It’s also a great idea for a stag or hen party. It’s a super fun activity to share together!

I’ll provide all the necessary equipment. You just need to bring your swimming suit, towel and also a set of dry clothes. And lots of energy!

Join me on this canyoning trip for beginners and discover a new activity that will get your adrenaline pumping! Bring family or friends. I can guarantee you’ll have the time of your life and will probably want to come back for more. So contact me!

Meeting point

We will meet directly in Val Bodengo. From Gravedona or Domaso, it's a 1-hour drive. Drive to Gordona (SO), a little town a few km before Chiavenna. Close to the Church (Address: Piazza San Martino – Gordona – SO) there are 2 bars where you can pay the entrance fee to the private road (it costs 6 euros). If both the bars are closed, you can buy the ticket at Bar Doc in Via Degli Emigranti n. 14 in Gordona on the road to Val Bodengo. From the Gordona Church, follow the sign to Val Bodengo for 7 Km and reach a little village called "Pra Pincée". I will wait for you near the little mountain restaurant called "Sosta Pincee".

Mountain Guide

I was born in 1980 in a small town in the northern part of Lake Como and started climbing the mountains behind my house as a child. It is here that this passion was born. When I was 15, I had my first ski touring and climbing experiences. Since then, I have dedicated all my free time to doing mountaineering ascents all over the Alps. My passion has taken me to Peru, Argentina, Madagascar and India, where I opened a new route. Several years ago, I decided to turn my love for the mountains into a profession and I became IFMGA-certified. I specialize in canyoning, rock climbing and I am a member of the Mountain Rescue Team.

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
