Depending on the nature of the canyon 4-8 people per Guide.

Rappeling

No previous experience is needed, we teach clients the basics of active rappeling (rappeling alone) with additional safety – adrenaline, but safety comes first. Children and people who are not comfortable with this style are then rappeled passively by Guide.

Children

Canyoning is also suitable for children of different ages. Important prerequisites are:

• The child is a swimmer
• Physically and mentally fit – is able to move independently in colder environment for at least 2h (in cold weather he gets an extra layer of clothes) on slippery surfaces, can slide independently, listens to the instructions of the Guide
• Under 15 years of age must be accompanied by an adult responsible for the child
