Canyoning Palvico is one of the most impressive Lake Garda canyoning tours in northern Italy
Steep, towering rock walls, enchanted caves, crystal clear water, mystical light and shadow play. Canyoning Palvico is one of the most impressive Lake Garda canyoning tours in northern Italy.
The canyon in Valle di Ledro has a bit of everything: jumps (up to 3 metres), rock slides and swimming passages, as well as abseil cliffs, the longest of which is a 50 metre waterfall.
Those who do not want to jump will be rappelled down.
Why Canyoning Palvico:
Canyoning Palvico is – despite the same duration – more demanding than the tour through the Canyon Rio Nero. The reason why is that there are hardly any possibilities to get out of the canyon, the higher cliffs and therefore the more mystical atmosphere, the colder water and the very long abseiling section. You do not have to walk.
Who is accompanying you
Nice to meet you, I’m Mauro, International Alpine Guide UIAGM. I live in Arco since 2001 and in that very year I opened my Alpinism school Mmove (former Friends of Arco). For several years I’ve been living amazing adventures from the Alps to Patagonia, till the high peaks of Karakorum, following or opening new routes on these wild peaks. My goal now is to share my enthusiasm for the mountain with my guests.
I’m very proud of all my collaborators and my high qualified local Alpine Guides. Mmove is not just an Alpinism School but also a bunch of friends that wants to give you great experiences. We like to Mmove it!
