Tarzaning Velon

Q: What is Tarzaning?

Tarzaning is a kind of 'dry' acrobatic canyoning. Instead of swimming in the torrent, you explore the canyon from above, flying over waterfalls and passing from wall to wall suspended in the void. It is an adrenaline-fuelled mix of Tibetan bridges, pulleys, ziplines and short climbing sections.

Q: Is it a safe activity? Who accompanies us?

Safety is total: you will be accompanied by experienced mountain guides who will follow you step by step along the entire route, handling connections and safeties.

Q: Where does the activity take place?

The experience takes place in a Canyon, in Vermiglio in Val di Sole, just 15 minutes from our centre.

Q: What happens if it rains?

Tarzaning doesn't stop! The activity can also be carried out regularly in the rain, making it a great option when the weather is not perfect for other activities.

Q: How long does the experience last and where is it?

The activity lasts about three hours. The meeting point is in Ossana, 30 minutes before departure. After the briefing, you will reach the activity site (about 15 minutes away) by your own means.

The three of us experienced rafting for the first time, and it was fantastic! The Noce River was cool and fast-flowing, perfect for rafting. My daughter laughed and joked the whole time, she had so much fun! Thank you to our guide, Pipe, for explaining the safety precautions. His experience was invaluable, making it an unforgettable experience for us.

A wonderful experience for kids, too. They provide all the necessary equipment; you just need to put on your swimsuit and they'll take care of everything else, even your shoes. At the end, you return everything, take a shower, change into your swimsuit, and head back. A special thanks to our guide, Claudio, who made us have fun and experience wonderful emotions.
