Canyoning Pontirone Expedition (Level 3)
This tour will thrill you right from the start, with several abseils taking you down into the depths of the canyon. This is followed by sections of real splendour together with varied terrain passages and impressive fissures. An airy 42 metre abseil takes us into the cavern-like final stretch, maybe the most beautiful sections of canyon in all of Ticino, featuring the narrowest of points with several interesting, technical jumps. Roughly 1h15 is needed to actually get into the Canyon (hence the need to be truly fit). Video clip Canyoning Pontirone Expedition Flyer Canyoning Pontirone Expedition
