FAQ
Canyoning (also Schluchteln) is walking through a canyon from top to bottom in different variations. Through passive or active rappelling, jumping, sliding and swimming, you get through the gorges with neoprene, helmet and special harness. Canyoning originated in Spain and southern France in the late 1990s. In the U.S., canyoning is better known as canyoneering.
Every weekend, many people from the major Bavarian cities of Munich, Augsburg and Nuremberg are drawn to the foothills of the Alps to pursue their passion, outdoor sports. Bavaria's extensive border region with Austria offers numerous gorges for every demand and taste of a canyoning lover.
Beginner Canyoning Bavaria is an unforgettable adventure! However, it can be dangerous if you are not properly prepared. With our professional equipment (neoprene suit 7mm, hip belt, helmet, neoprene socks) as well as under the expert guidance of our canyon guides, the beginner canyoning Bavaria for beginners is, however, a safe and at the same time exciting outdoor adventure that all participants* will remember for a long time!
Sure! Please contact us and we will take care of your non-binding reservation until 2 weeks before the date.
Approximately 90-95% of the tours take place as planned.
Gorges are undoubtedly among the most beautiful landscapes in the world!
However, they also have their disadvantages: due to the fact that they have partially narrow places, the safety in the gorge is very dependent on the water level and its influencing factors. The amount of precipitation, melt water, weir openings, etc...
Safety has absolute priority. Sometimes it is only possible to predict on very short notice (1 to 2 days) before the tour whether the circumstances are suitable for the tour. As soon as we are sure if the tour can take place (or not), we will let you know!
No, the tickets and vouchers remain valid. In case of cancellation an alternative date will be arranged.

Cool, responsible guide who responds to each individual participant and gives the opportunity to try out many different jumps with incredible fun. Who seems too brave, but can also bypass the difficult passages for him and adapted to his ability, have as much fun as the rest of the group.
Thanks for the great day.
Shuttle would still be nice, but does not diminish the fun.
The sport pirates are absolutely recommendable. We have also done a bachelorette party with rafting there and also experienced a cool, mega fun guide who made every fun possible within the scope of his responsibility and safety.
We will be back!!!March 15, 2023Answers -

Canjoning- the beginners tour:
The Sportpriaten are a great team of super nice coaches who respond to everyone individually and support everyone to overcome their hurdles. Many jumps from different heights, as a candle, ass bonbe or with a somersault - just super evening adventurous! Orga and equipment flawless, would be pleased evtl about a shuttle service, so that you can also arrive by train. Likewise, for the sake of the environment, I would be happy if you collect together on the tour a bit of garbage, which definitely does not belong in these beautiful gorges. TILL SOON !7 August 2022Answers -

A super great tour that you should not miss in any case. Definitely in need of repetition. Great guide. Ei fach auper.
Great, it would also be if there is an organized shuttle of sports pirates, so that you could also reach public transport well.
In addition, it would be super awesome if it is ensured that the garbage in the gorge is removed, gladly also share with the groups that everyone takes two parts, so that it immediately looks much cleaner.
But all in all a super cool tour.
A super fun over the tour.
