What's
Canyoneering?
Canyoning (known as canyoneering
in the U.S.) is traveling in
canyons using a variety of techniques
that may include other
outdoor activities such as
walking,
scrambling,
climbing,
jumping,
rappelling, and/or
swimming.
Although
hiking down a canyon that is
non-technical (canyon hiking) is often referred to as
canyoneering, the terms canyoning and canyoneering
are more often associated with technical descents — those that
require abseils (rappels) and ropework, technical climbing or
down-climbing, technical jumps, and/or technical swims.
Canyons that are ideal for canyoning are often cut into the
bedrock stone, forming narrow gorges with numerous drops,
beautifully sculpted walls, and sometimes spectacular
waterfalls. Most canyons are cut into
limestone,
sandstone,
granite or
basalt, though other rock types are
found. Canyons can be very easy or extremely difficult,
though emphasis in the sport is usually on aesthetics and fun
rather than pure difficulty. A wide variety of canyoning routes
are found throughout the world, and canyoning is enjoyed by
people of all ages and skill levels.
Canyoning gear includes climbing hardware, static ropes,
helmets,
wetsuits, and specially designed
shoes, packs, and rope bags. While canyoners have used and
adapted climbing, hiking, and
river running gear for years, more and
more specialized gear is invented and manufactured as canyoning
popularity increases.
