Heli-Canyoning in Boggera CanyonOur Heli-Canyoning trip is probably the best canyoning tour in the world. We start with a short but spectacular helicopter flight from the Lodrino airbase to our landing zone at an elevation near 1100 meters. We actually fly below the level of the canyon walls, and you’ll catch a glimpse of the excitement to come. Once we begin to descend you will find a huge variety of abseils, slides through natural chutes, and jumps into narrow fissures with crystal clear pools. This is a long and varied canyon, one of the best in a canyoning region known throughout the world. The actual time in-canyon is about 6-7 hours. Tour programme We will start this extraordinary tour at our base, where you will meet your guides and get your complete canyoning equipment. A free car park is available on site. Then we can already hit the road for the Lodrino Airport, where the helicopter is already waiting for us. By helicopter, we will start a flight full of action to the point of entry. A brief safety instruction is following on site, before we will spend about 6 hours in the canyon. After a challenging descent we will return to our base. You will get snacks and drinks in between as well as in the end of this long tour!
