Half-day Canyoning Fox Course

【OUTLINE】

Fox Canyon is our most popular course. We go through a steep canyon in various ways. You can enjoy abseiling down waterfalls and cliffs and jumping around them. Also enjoyable is to slip down the natural slope of the waterfall and swim in the clear water pool. We will spend 80% of our time in the water. Above all, the highlight of this course is a 20-meter water sliding. This is a perfect activity for beginners who want to enjoy the thrills of canyoning, and also good for groups whose members want to get different levels of thrill.
