Madeira Canyoning Intermediate
By Be Local Madeira · listed in canyoning tours in Madeira for beginners
I'd look at this one for an intermediate trip with up to 10 people. For a first try I'd choose level 1. You need moderate fitness.
After pickup you get your kit before a walk of about 20 minutes. A safety briefing takes place at the stream. You abseil waterfalls and swim in pools along the route. There are jumps and slides too.
Your kit includes boots. A snack and water come with the trip. Transport and insurance are included alongside photos and videos. Check which age limits apply before booking.

From the operator
In Be Local Madeira's own words, from the Viator listing.
We provide one of the best adventures that Madeira can offer.
Connecting with the natural surroundings following a river as you walk, rappel, slide and jump through hidden waterfalls with streams that cross endemic forests. A super fun and adventurous day.
On breathtaking tours through the crystal clear waters of Madeira's numerous rivers, you can explore the pristine and unspoilt interior of the island.
After a safety briefing and an overview of your canyoning excursion, you will make a short descent into the canyon with your friendly and experienced guide. Using a rope system and harness, you will rappel, trek, scramble, jump and slide your way through the refreshing waters of the canyon.
Challenge yourself and get out of your comfort zone under the supervision of our experienced and friendly guides.
