## FAQs

### Is previous experience required for Acharn Canyoning?

While no previous canyoning experience is necessary, Acharn is considered a more challenging canyon than introductory routes. The experience involves longer periods of scrambling, swimming and technical rope work, making it better suited to active participants who enjoy outdoor adventure. Your guides provide full instruction throughout the day, but a good level of confidence around water and uneven terrain will help you enjoy the experience.

### What should I wear?

We recommend wearing swimwear underneath the provided wetsuit. Bring old shoes (to get wet) and a non-cotton T-shirt. Depending on the weather, warm clothing may be needed before and after the trip.

### Are there any age restrictions?

Yes, participants must be at least 14 years old to join the adventure. This ensures safety and suitability for the activities involved.

### How physically demanding is Acharn Canyoning?

Acharn Canyoning involves a mix of activities including jumping, swimming, climbing, and abseiling. While a moderate level of fitness is recommended, participants of varying abilities can enjoy the experience.

### Can you help me arrange local accommodation?

Yes, if you require accommodation, please contact us via the Adventuro chat to enquire about the various options available.

### How difficult is the 25-metre waterfall abseil?

The waterfall abseil is the highlight of the experience and offers an exciting but carefully controlled descent alongside one of the canyon's most impressive waterfalls. Before beginning, your instructors will explain the technique, check your equipment and guide you through every stage of the descent. Because you're attached to a professionally managed rope system, the abseil is completed under close supervision, allowing you to focus on enjoying the experience while your guides manage the technical aspects.
