CANYONING • Ribeira da Salga – This excursion takes place in Ribeira da Salga, located in the northeast part of the island of São Miguel, between the parishes of Lomba de São Pedro and Salga (+/- 40 minute drive away from the city of Ponta Delgada). Upon arrival, we will distribute equipment and provide a quick safety briefing. Then, we will embark on a 30-minute hike towards the start of the canyon where the fun will begin!
From this tour, you can expect a wild and almost untouched nature with difficult accesses, some steep paths, and a lot of physical exercise. The highest rappel can reach up to 16 meters. If you feel uncomfortable about the jumps, know that there are alternatives – the highest jump can reach up to 9 meters.
You will explore and make your way down this canyon by jumping from high ledges into natural pools and abseiling down waterfalls. Additionally, you will wade, walk and slide down the river, ending with an uphill climb back to our starting point. We will end our trip with a well deserved picnic style lunch at a local park.
