Full description

Start with pickup from Funchal, Canico or Câmara De Lobos and drive to the canyoning location. Meet your guides and receive all your equipment for the activity. Walk 15-minutes to the entrance of a stream where the first safety briefing will take place.


Along the way, abseil down breath-taking waterfalls, jump and swim in beautiful natural pools, always surrounded by incredible landscapes.


With natural water slides, abseiling, and jumps into natural rock pools the canyons are sure to make your heart skip a beat. The beginning of the stream has some vertical challenges (maximum 18-meters), small walking sections, and many play areas.


The river will be flowing by the entire time with several optional jumps. The challenge continues following a quick snack break with waterfalls.


Guides will take pictures and videos of your experience throughout the day, to be sent to you afterwards. At the end of the trip, there will be transportation to bring you back to the park where you began your adventure.

Unforgettable Canyoning Experience in Madeira! We had an absolutely amazing canyoning adventure in Madeira, near Funchal — it was one of the highlights of our trip! The entire experience was well-organized, safe, and incredibly fun. The scenery was breathtaking: lush greenery, stunning waterfalls, and that unbeatable feeling of jumping into fresh water or rappelling down a canyon. What truly made the day unforgettable were our guides: Sander, Álvaro, Joa, and Juirmo. They were incredibly professional, friendly, patient, and full of good energy. We felt completely safe the entire time and also encouraged to push our limits and enjoy every moment. They created such a relaxed and positive atmosphere, always checking in on everyone and making sure we were all having a great time. We 100% recommend this experience to anyone visiting Madeira who’s looking to add a bit of adventure and adrenaline to their trip. Huge thanks to Sander, Álvaro, Joa, and Juirmo — you were fantastic.
