Canyoning in Corsica

Canyoning is traveling down through canyons using different techniques like abseiling, climbing, jumping, scrambling, swimming and diving. As equipment you need a wetsuit and climbing gear. The main appeal of this sport is the thrill factor (adrenaline) and the nature experience.

Corsica is a sheer paradise for this new trend sport. Numerous mountain rivers with natural slides, deep rock pools, waterfalls and steep cliffs have ideal conditions for canyoning. It is recommended, though, to carry out this sport under professional supervision because the entries are often very hard to find and require good knowledge of the area. However, having followed this advise, there are no more obstacles to fully enjoy the daring jumps and have fun with breathtaking abseiling and on the natural slides.

Several different companies offer guided tours and are present on the big campgrounds. You definitely need courage, a good head for heights and an appropriate level of fitness to do canyoning.
