CANYONING RIO SELVANO
The canyoning Rio Selvano is definitely the most beautiful canyoning in Tuscany, there are a plenty of toboggans that lead to beautiful natural green pools.
Some mandatoy rappels allow you to overcome the higher drops.
There is always the possibility to do rappels for those who prefer to avoid the highest jumps.
Very funny, it lasts about 3 hours.

WHAT IS CANYONING
Canyoning is a very cool activity that takes place along little torrents with a modest waterflow. The most beautiful canyons allow you to jump and slide like in a water park, but in a natural environment.
Doing canyoning allows you to visit unique places. There’s no chance to see those places without practicing canyoning. It is a very adventurous activity and the environment is wild even if you are not far from a town or a road. Usually the sight of a bridge brings back to the reality of the world that we are used to attend.
It does not require previous technical experience, but requires good physical conditions, confidence with water and of course, knowing how to swim. The guides will inform you about the correct behaviors to keep inside the canyon to minimize risks, what to do and what not to do. The participants are asked to scrupulously follow the directions received from the guides.
