Level 1 - Canyoning For All - Beginner | Funchal

By Go Canyoning Madeira · listed in canyoning tours in Madeira for beginners

Our take

This is a handy choice for a first try from central Funchal. You join a group of up to 8 people. Pickup is at the CR7 Museum.

Guides fit your equipment before a safety briefing. You descend seven waterfalls with ropes and pulleys. There is also a slide and a pool for jumping. A walk of about 10 minutes takes you back to the starting point.

Boots and the rest of the canyoning kit are included. Photos and videos come with the trip. Snacks aren't included. Transport takes you back to Funchal afterwards.
