Offers of Canyoning Lucca

If you're planning on canyoning in Lucca, we can assure you that you couldn't have picked a better location! Canyoning in these places is a delightful experience and is the best not only in Tuscany but throughout Italy. There are numerous options in various locations throughout the province of Lucca that will meet any of your requirements. And we will introduce you to this pastime with all the essential information and assistance on this website.

Canyoning in Lucca and its province is distinguished by the stunning scenery in which the activity can be carried out. In fact, this sport will give you a rush of adrenaline and involve some physical exertion from your side. However, it will also allow you to observe the most beautiful landscapes like those in Garfagnana and Versilia as you descend your rivers and/or streams.

In terms of the technical aspect of this sport, canyoning activities can last anywhere from 2 hours (for children under 16 and beginners) to 5 hours (for people who are more physically trained).

Where can you go canyoning in Lucca and surroundings?

• Canyoning in the Selvano River: Go canyoning down the stream in the Fabbriche di Vergemoli locality. Here, you may immerse yourself in a fascinating and entirely wild canyon, complete with natural toboggans, dives, and descents of up to 10 meters. Because creek canyoning does not necessitate any special technical skills, it is also appropriate for novices.

• Canyoning in the Maggiore River (or Pilli River): In the Fabbriche di Vallico region, you can enjoy fantastic descents in the Rio Maggiore as an alternative to the Rio Selvano. You will go through paths between the rocks on ropes, lowered in sequence, with a final magnificent waterfall of 35 meters.

• Canyoning in the Lima River: The crystal clear waters of the Lima stream in Sesta (a hamlet of Bagni di Lucca) provide an exceptional spectacle for your canyoning activities. During its voyage, this torrent creates spectacular pools with depths of over 13 meters, as well as the stunning Cocciglia Gorges.

• Canyoning in the Turrite di Gallicano: Fornovolasco, a town in the spectacular Battiferro Park, offers a beautiful canyoning activity. Among its tributaries, Rio Pinguini is also considered an outstanding canyoning destination.

• Canyoning in the Serra Torrent: The Serra torrent is perfect for canyoning if you are in the Serravezza area. This offers a somewhat challenging but delightful course between calcareous and ferrous rocks and marble quarries. An incredible 12-meter toboggan and the majestic Pozza della Madonna await you after the canyoning trail.

• Ania River Canyoning: A tributary of the Serchio River, this stream offers a canyoning course with beautiful gorges, natural slides, and falls on waterfalls that never exceed 12 meters.

River trekking is an alternative for those who are less physically fit. You can have a canyon adventure experience in the centre of a wild environment right in Bagni di Lucca. The Cocciglia Gorges are a terrific stretch in these places.

The adventure park/canyon park in Chieva offers a thrilling journey that should not be missed. The Levigliese stream offers two courses - medium-easy and advanced. The former option involves dives and water slides (toboggan) and the other more advanced, adrenaline-pumping, and suggested for the more experienced, both of which start at Vergemoli. If you are in Lucca, we recommend the beautiful Serchio River Park for your canyoning activities, an ideal place for nature enthusiasts thanks to its diverse flora and fauna.
