Full description
Canyoning is the sport of travelling down a river situated in a canyon by a variety of means including scrambling, floating, swimming, and abseiling. The canyon you'll visit has a mystical atmosphere and is situated within a rainforest among spring water from the mountain. The experience starts with a briefing about all of the necessary logistics and safety. You will then be provided with all equipment and warm up by walking along a short trail until reaching the start. The descent starts by scrambling down the stream, having fun in this watery playground where you'll have the opportunity to try out jumping (optional), sliding, rappelling, and abseiling down the waterfalls. At every obstacle, there will be a guide explaining everything you need to do and helping you. Along the stream, there will be some jumps, which get higher as the course progresses. The highest one is about 6 meters tall. Nothing is mandatory, so if you don't feel comfortable jumping, don't worry. You can still participate in the tour and have lots of fun. At the end of the tour, photos and videos will be sent directly to your e-mail free of charge.

We can definitely recommend this canyoning experience. Our guides were the best guides you can imagine. They're experienced and make sure you have a great time. The canyoning itself was also very nice with jumps, slides and two rappels. If you want to go canyoning in Sao Miguel, this is the place to be!

Ganz liebe, lustige und kompetente Truppe. Was ich sehr positiv fand und aus anderen Canyoningtouren so nicht kannte, war dass wir auch Schuhe bekommen haben, was das Erlebnis nochmal spaßiger macht. Wir hatten, auf Grund unseres Navis, 25 Minuten Verspätung und riefen kurz nach dem ursprünglichen Zeitpunkt an. Es war kein Problem, sie informierten die Guides vor Ort und wir konnten bei der Tour ohne weiteres mitmachen. Die "Blueberrys" kann ich wirklich nur empfehlen egal ob für Anfänger oder Fortgeschrittene. Im Anschluss bekommt man die Fotos und die Vidoes von der Tour. Bucht bei Ihnen, ihr werdet es nicht bereuen!

Un barranco fácil para iniciarse, con algunos saltos bastante altos y dos rapels de unos 9-10 metros con dos monitores excelentes, muy simpáticos y amables que te ayudan en todo momento, se hace un poco corto, pero de gran belleza. Lo recomiendo al 100%
