Choosing a canyon

Please write your preferences in the notes of the order form. However, we reserve the right to change or reschedule the canyon due to weather conditions and safety (upon agreement with the client).

The course of the canyoning tour:

We will meet at our Black Sheeps Adventures base in Wildalpen at the agreed time.
This is followed by filling in the list of participants, providing basic information.
Participants will be given the necessary equipment (Each person guarantees that the equipment is of the correct size and complete. Incompleteness of equipment is a hindrance to canyoning.)
Transportation by own cars to the parking lot under the canyon follows.
Change of clothes – we recommend a towel and a swimsuit, changing is usually done in the car park.
Walking to the canyon – here we take only things that can get wet. On warmer days, walking in swimwear is recommended, and lighter e.g. Functional t-shirt. The equipment is then carried in hands or slung on the back.
Before entering the canyon itself, there will be a safety training on how to move in the canyon and a rappelling test
Off we go, let’s do it!
After passing the canyon we walk back to the car. Changing clothes and handing over the equipment to the guide. Farewell.
The option to shower at the Black Sheeps Adventures base in Wildalpen.

Weissenbach Canyon

A rappelling canyon, with less water. For the more experienced and physically fit. The canyon is typical for its white colour (hence the name) and depth (sometimes you can hardly see the sky). It provides top-notch cooling – almost no sun, a sight of the wildness of nature – the changing character of the canyon after the rains (invaded trees that have to be climbed over,…). The canyon is only passable after a prolonged dry period and in a 100% rain-free forecast. The road to the canyon is exposed, narrow in places. The canyon itself is deep and narrow in the first part, the second part is open and sunny – more pedestrian. At the end, the opportunity to bathe in the clear Radmerbach creek.
