What to expect

Arriving in the entrance of Kourtaliotiko gorge, we are immediately amazed by the majestic walls that stand hundreds of meters high. We take the stone steps that lead us to the source of the river that formed this scenery through the ages. Then, the instructors will give a safety briefing so that we can understand the use of our gear and learn to trust it.

The source of Kourtaliotiko river becomes a natural playground for us! Feel free to rappel down the steep canyon wall next to the waterfall and try 2 rappels as well as 2 adrenaline jumps in the water. Our specialized instructors and guides will be next to you at all times to ensure your safety and guide you through the different activities.

We will end the experience by hiking down to South during about 20 minutes.
