Canyoning at “Gole dell’Alcantara“
Canyoning at “Gole dell’Alcantara“ is an unforgettable Green Adventure.
In the enchanting natural temple of Alcantara Gorges we offer a unique and exciting experience, designed for adventures and challenges lovers , for those who want to experience the river without mediation or learn about themselves through the “confrontation” with the four elements: the Fire and the Soil of the Basalt, the Water and the Air of the Alcantara Gorges in a stunning scenario.
CANYONING AT ALCANTARA GORGES IS NOT A SIMPLE EXCURSION BUT A REAL EXPERIENCE TO BRING WITH YOU FOR A LIFETIME A small corner of paradise generated by ancient lava flows will welcome you. You will have the opportunity to meet and admire the important river ecosystems as well as the spectacular columnar basalt walls that make this part of Sicily unique all over the world. Descending into what is known as the most beautiful “waterfalls” in Sicily, through the deep canyon, you will have the opportunity to discover otherwise inaccessible panoramic views. Our guides will lead you, in complete safety, along this exciting aquatic path in contact with nature and with the generating force of its waters.

ACTIVITY
Your experience will be divided into four parts:
– TRANSFER AND TREKKING Once the briefing has finished and the delivery of individual material and dressing is also completed, a company vehicle will take us near the entrance to the Canyon.
– CANYONING You will descend waterfalls with the aid of ropes, traverse natural slides and then dive into the legendary pool of Venus. You will pass through adventurous climbing passages on the way down, and will not infrequently be forced to swim short stretches in the water to reach the next obstacle. Immersed in a natural setting that will enchant you, you will have the opportunity to visit the Alcantara Gorges in their entirety. Along the descent, after having tackled the waterfalls or overcome breathtaking rapids with your own body, we will also make our way on foot along the narrow, dark grey basalt sections, alternating different techniques of sports progression such as trekking, some basic concepts borrowed from climbing and others from swimming. In this way, comfortably lying on the water, aided by our life jaket we will be transported towards the exit of the Gorge, where hundreds of tourists, especially in the summer period, go in search of the famous Alcantara waterfalls, the same that they will never be able to see if they participate in our CANYONING ADVENTURE outing.
– BACK At the end of the river activity, we will return to the base, where you can stop to eat your packed lunch rather than, ask for advice and suggestions to continue your trip .
