Beautiful places to try canyoning in Bulgaria close to Bansko and Sofia.
Canyoning is crossing a narrow canyon or riverbed. Obstacles are overcome by walking, sliding, scrambling, jumping, etc. It starts with a meeting at our rafting base in Kresna, where we provide you with full equipment – neoprene, neoprene shoes, helmet, jacket, vest. Canyoning of Sheitan Dere, Vlahi or Platanova gora is another adventure to diversify your trip in the area of the river Struma.
Devil’s canyon
We will head to the two waterfalls in the middle of the canyon. We will cross the river several times and reach a meadow. After that, the canyon closes and we will enter only along the river. When we reach the two waterfalls, we will jump, swim and bask in the sun. The roar of the falling water in the narrow canyon will enchant you. If you can climb we will take you over the waterfalls to jump.
