Details
What do you have to know about the Malvaglia Canyoning Adventure?
It is one of the classics of the Ticino canyoning scene even though it’s located a bit further to the north next to Pontirone.
We start our hike next to an old Roman bridge that spans above the canyon and we hike up to a little mountain village where our real adventure starts by the descent into the canyon. The canyon is really diverse with open and closed sections, amazing pools and splashing waterfalls.
Check out the video to get a glimpse of what is waiting for you!
