How to choose

Both tours run through the Kobelache canyon with Big Eyes Alpinschule, but the gap between them is significant: 40 € and 2 full hours. The beginner tour (105 €, 4h) covers the canyon's accessible sections, rappelling and sliding through the gorge with no prior experience required. The advanced tour (145 €, 6h) pushes deeper into the Kobelache, adding more technical descents, longer rappels and sustained water exposure. Both are open to all fitness levels, so the choice isn't about physical ability. Pick the beginner tour if it's your first canyon. Book the advanced tour if you want the full intensity of what this Vorarlberg gorge delivers.

Frequently asked questions

What's the most intense moment in a canyoning tour here?
The rappels down the wet rock faces inside the Kobelache gorge are where the adrenaline peaks. Cold water rushing around you while you descend is the defining moment of both tours.
Do you need to be afraid of heights to enjoy this?
A healthy respect for heights helps, but neither tour requires you to be fearless. The guide sets the pace and the progression is gradual, especially on the beginner route.
What's the difference in raw intensity between the two tours?
The advanced tour adds 2 extra hours inside the canyon, which means more rappels, more jumps and longer exposure to cold water. It's the same gorge pushed further, not a different location.
Is canyoning in the Kobelache suitable for complete beginners?
Yes. Both tours list 'Everybody welcome' as the physical level. The beginner tour at 105 € is specifically designed for first-timers with no technical background.
When is the best time to do canyoning near Bregenz?
The season runs from May to September. Water levels and temperatures are most favorable in June and July, when snowmelt from the Vorarlberg mountains has settled.
