The Experience
Before You Go
Arrive hydrated
Carry at least 1.5–2 liters of water in a light pack; there is no potable water on the route.
Shoes matter
Wear sturdy canyon or approach shoes with good grip—rock is smooth and can be slippery in shaded sections.
Vertigo check
If you’re sensitive to heights, mention it when booking—abseils up to 20 m are part of the itinerary.
Timing in summer
Start early to avoid midday heat; late afternoon trips are cooler but light can drop quickly in the canyon.
