The Richiusa Canyon is one of the most popular in Corsica, and rightly so: close to Ajaccio, it offers a very pleasant descent throughout the summer and a very complete canyoning course, ideal for discovering the activity. It will be just as suitable for more experienced canyoning enthusiasts as it will be for a fun outing among friends.
Tour programme- Preparation:We meet at
the village fountain in Bocognano, just next to the Post Office (you will find a car park just opposite). Your state-certified canyoning instructor will provide you with your equipment there and then you depart for an approach walk of about 45 minutes. Once on site, safety instructions will be provided before entering the canyon.
- Tour:For 2hrs, all the obstacles of canyoning will be combined in a magical setting: jumps (never mandatory), slides, abseiling and zip line, not to mention swimming passages in natural pools of an incredible emerald green.
- Arrival:Once you reach the end of the canyon, a 15-min walk awaits you to reach your vehicle.
