Canyoning Ticino Boggera

Our most favourite trip!

Between Bellinzona and Biasca in the south of Switzerland lies this beautiful open sunny canyon, an ideal place to get introduced into the world of Canyoning.

The Boggera river has carved out deep clear pools in this blinding white granite rock so this natural playground contains jumps, slides and roped descents suitable for every level.

It is important to us that the level of adventure is appropriate to you and your group. This trip is perfect for the beginner who is happy in water. However, the level of difficulty increases during to the trip so even water lovers with prior canyoning experience will not be dissappointed. In this canyon it is always possible to be lowered on a rope down the waterfalls and a path is always nearby, or if your enjoying the challenge of heights, we can show you some of the larger jumps and slides into the crystal clear pools.
