10 minutes in advance. Once the group of 8 participants is gathered, 45 minutes of walk will be necessary to reach the start of the canyon. Finally, before heading down to the Barbaira River, your guide will provide you with all the necessary equipment and give you a safety briefing. The adventure can then begin!
