Magic Canyons
Advaned one day tours
Tessin (Switzerland) and Chiavenna (Italy)
Breathtaking, roaring waterfalls are waiting for our visit. These gorges are characterized by their solitude, their wildness, their size and their length. Experience, stable conditions and care are required, as there are very few opportunities to leave the canyon. Once in the ravine, the only way out is to carry on forwards. Abseiling and good swimming technique are required.
