★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 13 reviews · 4 hours · from $120

Review of advanced canyoning at Auerklamm in Tyrol, with jumps, slides, abseils, expert guides, pricing, safety, and practical tips.

“The female guide was very good! But the male guide was openly annoyed with the group and made multiple strange comments like: “in austria we speak DEUTSCH!” When half of the group was not german speaking. The girl was amazing even when someone of the group dislocated his shoulder in a jump. The trip felt well organized and the company felt good overall. We were not amazed by the canyon but it was a nice experience. Only the last slide was really shit on everyones body. The gear was in good shape. 3/5 for our group because of the professionalism of the male guide”

We did not need anything except a bathing suit and towel! They provided warm clothing, canyoning shoes, and protection! I would highly recommend this tour if you have the time or even make it your first priority! The thing that really stood out to me was that they were willing to accommodate to our skill level!”
