Activity description

Canyoning is an activity where it is all about moving down and through a canyon. We have an exciting and challenging course through the canyon, including a via ferrata, tight ropes, cliff jumping into the river, bouldering, a zip line and swimming!

The trip takes place directly downstream from the renowned Gudbrandsjuvet canyon, approximately 15 kilometers from downtown Valldal, towards Trollstigen. The course is located in a breathtaking canyon, where placid water runs between vertical granite walls. Within the canyon we have a course of obstacles, travelling down the canyon.

2) Family canyoning:

The first challenge is a via ferrata, followed by a rope bridge, stretched across to the other side of the canyon. From there we move further into the canyon with a via ferrata, a new balance bridge, before doing our first dive of the day from 3m (10ft) height! After a short swim in the refreshing water, we climb up again, ready for more jumping, swimming, climbing and ziplining. The trip ends with a swim through white water rapids at the end of the canyon.

How high do I need to jump?
The answer is 3m (10ft) which most people can do. It is possible to skip that jump also, but then you will lose a big part of the experience.

And what about the highest?
12m (40ft), but that's only for the toughest! Overall jumps are from 1m to 12m (40ft).

Fantastic experience, enjoyed the short Via Ferrara climb particularly.

The activity was lots of fun. It was a warm day, so I think the wet suit should be an option cause some of us don't mind swimming in frigid water.
