CANYONING
ESSENTIALS
A basic essential that an individual needs to have before
Canyoning is a wetsuit. Typically, wetsuits that have
some kind of padding on the elbows and knees would
be ideal. The padding would serve as extra cushioning
for safety when you go up the canyon.
Next on the list, will be a good and sturdy pair of
shoes. There are now plenty of Canyoning-specific
apparel out in the market, but as long as your shoes
have a good grip, made to be in water, and have great
ankle support, you are good to go!HAVING RECENTLY COME under
the spotlight in many adventurers’
bucket lists, Canyoning is an
adventure activity that combines
rock and water activities perfectly!
From hiking to swimming,
Canyoning is an outdoor venture
that is ideal for everyone. So suit up
and let the adrenaline rush begin!
GETTING STARTED
Despite Canyoning being a
relatively easy activity that is suitable
for all ages, it is still recommended
that the individual have some sort
of basic fitness training beforehand!
The last issue, we talked about
the basics of rock climbing.
Well, you’re in luck! Canyoning
incorporates rock climbing, hiking,
and abseiling. This exhilarating
escapade requires the individual to
have the stamina to get to the top
of the canyon while carrying their
necessary equipment.
Canyoning also involves
swimming! One of the most
electrifying quests in Canyoning is
the part where you have to rappel
down the canyon and into the
waters of the beautiful gorge. The
gorges are usually deep pools,
so being well skilled even in the
simplest swimming strokes can
help you out when you take that
big leap.
Canyoning is a great way to see
what nature has to offer up close,
Going on an adventure in some
places many do not have access to
and seeing the beauty it holds.
