Tour programme- Preparation:We'll meet right in
Gordevio. There is a free car park next to our base. There you will meet your guide and get the necessary equipment for the tour. We start with a
comfortable 30-minute ascent through the old chestnut woods of the Valle Maggias. Once we arrive at the highest point, which marks the beginning of our adventure, there will be a
safety briefing.
- Tour:Jumps and slides are always optional during the whole tour and never obligatory. After the
abseil training a first trial jump and a fun slide await you. Then we continue to the first abseil point. This is the ideal preparation for the next waterfall, the highest and most impressive of the whole tour.
- Arrival:The crowning finale of the tour is a last
waterfall. From there it is only a stone's throw to the car, where a
small aperitif will be waiting for you.
