Frequently asked questions
How intense is Hoz Somera canyon?
Hoz Somera is classified as suitable for everybody, so the intensity stays accessible rather than extreme. Expect a mix of rappels down wet rock faces, small jumps into pools and sections of natural slide, all within a half-day timeframe.
What is the most adrenaline-charged moment in this canyon?
The rappel sections are typically the peak moment in Hoz Somera, where you descend a wet cliff face above a pool. The exact height of the drops is confirmed by your guide on the day.
Do I need to be afraid of water to do this?
Basic comfort in water is recommended since canyoning involves swimming through pools and moving water. You do not need to be a strong swimmer, but total non-swimmers should mention it to Tabei Adventures before booking.
Is 57 € the total price or a deposit?
57 € is the full price per person for the half-day session, as listed by Tabei Adventures.
