canyoning in Arroyo de la Virgen, Bariloche
In Bariloche you can do canyoning, a type of adventure tour combining hiking with climbing and swimming in pools, canyons and rapids, jumping from natural springboards to deep pools, crossing the river with your team, walking on the rocks, rappel climbing in cascades and plenty of adrenaline.
Once you get to the top of the cascade, you can start your descent. Surrounded by exhuberant vegetation, these natural pools invite you to plunge into the stream.
In the steepest sector you use ropes for rappel.
In less steep sites you let yourself be dragged by the water sitting on the polished rock of the jumps.
The milenary natural slides carved by the persistence of the water are ideal for this kind of adventure.
Drift with the stream among rocks of different colors.
Suddenly the waters get faster and there s an exciting toboggan at the end of this fun challenge. Seduced by canyoning? The necessary garment includes a helmet, a harness and a neoprene jacket, which can be hired from the operator.
For those who wish to go canyoning for the first time, they recommend the 45 m. high cascade in Arroyo de la Virgen called Salto del Vasco.
