Would you like to go canyoning in Ticino? Discover one of the region's most beautiful canyons in the small municipality of Riviera: the Boggera canyon!

With its picturesque landscapes and numerous gorges and waterfalls, Ticino is an ideal region for canyoning in Switzerland. One of the most famous canyons in Ticino is the Boggera canyon. Located near Biasca in the Cresciano valley, the Boggera canyon offers a combination of jumps, abseils and natural slides.

To explore it in complete safety, you'll be accompanied by professional guides who specialise in canyoning. Throughout your 2 to 3-hour canyoning session in Ticino, the instructors will guide and advise you to ensure you have an unforgettable sporting experience.

In a sunny, open canyon, you can enjoy sublime, unobstructed views of the surrounding area. At the same time, you'll be amazed by the canyon's unique rock formations. A work of art by Mother Nature! Canyoning offers a unique opportunity to discover uncharted landscapes that can only be reached by practising this sport.

A number of obstacles await you in the Boggera canyon: abseils up to 25 metres long, numerous slides and jumps of up to 10 metres (all optional). The canyon is accessible from the age of 10, and whatever your level, your qualified instructor will be there to help you overcome these challenges!
