FAQ

Why do canyoning for beginners in Bavaria?

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!

Can I book the appointment first without obligation?

Sure! Please contact us and we will take care of your non-binding reservation until 2 weeks before the date. 

Does beginner canyoning in Bavaria take place in all weathers?

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! 

Do the tickets and vouchers expire if the appointment is cancelled?

No, the tickets and vouchers remain valid. In case of cancellation an alternative date will be arranged.

Am I in a group with my friends?

Yes! As long as you book under the same name, you will be assigned to the same group.

For bookings with different names, feel free to let us know.

How big are the groups? What is the minimum number of participants?

There is a maximum of 10 guests per guide.
If we have several groups for the same time, the guides decide on the spot whether the groups go together or separately.

What is part of the equipment and what do I have to bring myself?

What do I need to bring ?

  • Swimsuit or trunks or bikini
  • Towel

    We had a great JGA with our guide Emmi. An absolute recommendation!
    The equipment and Orga was top.
    Only that there is no shuttle on site is a bit of a shame, because otherwise you could arrive directly by train and leave the car at home.
