Pontirone is one of the most beautiful wonders of Ticino ! The adventure begins with an incredible 45-meter rappel, suspended in mid-air, and continues with a series of technical jumps (optional) and natural slides. Pure fun at its best !

 

The crystal clear water winds through massive granite boulders and alongside towering rock walls that filter the daylight, casting a mysterious and enchanting atmosphere over the canyon.

 

Narrow and with no escape routes, Pontirone offers an experience for those comfortable with both water and heights. If you're looking for adrenaline and a breathtaking natural setting, this canyon will leave you speechless !

​​

This route pairs perfectly with another canyon in the region for a full-day adventure.
