WILD TRIP
THE JOURNEY IN PILLS
Canyoning in Corsica
Wild gorges, turquoise water, and the right amount of effort
If your idea of a holiday is lying still on a sunbed for five days… this might not be the right page for you.
But if the idea of putting on a wetsuit, descending through spectacular gorges, jumping into natural pools, sliding down smooth rock, and ending the day tired but with a huge smile on your face sounds more like your kind of trip, then keep reading.
Corsica is known as the “Mountain in the Sea”, and once you arrive, it is easy to understand why: wild mountains, incredible canyons, crystal-clear water, and views that seem designed to make you stop every few minutes for another photo.
How do we get to Corsica?
You will meet the guides directly at the base chosen for the trip.
You have two options for getting there: organize the journey completely on your own, or travel together with the other participants to make transport, cars, and logistics easier — and maybe start getting to know each other before even setting foot on the island.
We usually depart from the port of Livorno, but nothing is set in stone: you are free to choose whichever route and means of transport suits you best.
The important thing is simply to get there.
The Trip Programme
Once we arrive in Corsica, the adventure officially begins.
We settle into our base, meet the group, hand out the technical equipment, and go through a briefing on the programme for the following days.
Then, because we are serious and highly professional people, we immediately move on to the most delicate part of the organisation:
aperitivo and relaxation.
Day 1 – Arrival, Check-in & Preparation
Arrival in Corsica and meeting with the guides.
We settle into a welcoming accommodation surrounded by nature and prepare all the equipment we will need for the days ahead.
Wetsuit, helmet, harness, ropes: we check everything carefully.
Because from the following day, the real adventure begins.
Day 2 – Vacca or Polischellu Canyon
We start with one of the great classics of canyoning in Corsica.
Depending on the conditions and the group, we will choose between Vacca and Polischellu — two spectacular routes featuring crystal-clear water, jumps, natural slides, and passages carved into the rock.
In short, the perfect way to realise straight away that this is definitely not going to be your typical resort holiday.
And that is exactly what makes it so special.
Day 3 – Richiusa Canyon
On the third day, we head to Richiusa Canyon.
Here, the landscape changes, but the adventure continues: rappels, crystal-clear pools, towering rock walls, and more technical sections will accompany us throughout the route.
It is one of those places where, at some point, you cannot help but think:
“Can a place like this really exist?”
Yes. And we will be right there in the middle of it.
Day 4 – Purcaraccia Canyon
This is one of the highlights of the trip.
Purcaraccia is probably one of the most famous and spectacular canyons in Corsica. Smooth natural slides, turquoise pools, waterfalls, and a truly unique setting make it an unforgettable place.
Basically, it is like a natural water park.
Except there are no inflatables, no loud music blasting from speakers, and no queues for the slides.
Just mountains, water, and rock.
Much better.
Day 5 – Relax & Departure
We enjoy Corsica’s crystal-clear sea, maybe go for one last swim and, if time allows, treat ourselves to something good to eat.
Then comes the least fun part of the trip:
saying goodbye and heading home.
But don’t worry — by this point, someone is usually already talking about the next adventure.
WHY COME TO CORSICA?
Because the canyons are truly spectacular
Corsica offers an incredible variety of routes, from easier, more playful canyons to technical and demanding descents.
This means we can tailor the trip to the group’s level, experience, and the conditions at the time.
Because nature here is still wild
Some of the places we will explore are far from roads, buildings, and crowds.
There is nothing but mountains, forests, gorges, water, and silence.
Well… silence until someone in the group makes a less-than-graceful jump into the water.
Because after the adventure, there’s always the sea
One of the great things about Corsica is exactly this.
In the morning, you can be hanging from a rope deep inside a mountain gorge, and just a few hours later, find yourself by the sea.
Adrenaline and relaxation in the same trip.
Not bad, right?
WANT TO STAY A FEW EXTRA DAYS?
No problem.
The programme can be extended on request.
If you have a few extra days available, we can plan a longer itinerary together with the guides and choose additional canyons to explore.
Because, let’s be honest: once you are in Corsica, leaving too soon almost feels like a shame.
A Different Side of Corsica
Corsica is one of those islands that can still truly surprise you.
Beyond its famous beaches and postcard-perfect views, there are mountains, gorges, rivers, and wild corners that are absolutely worth discovering.
And that is exactly where we want to take you.
Into the most authentic, remote, and spectacular side of the island.
Surrounded by crystal-clear water, ropes, jumps, laughter, incredible scenery and, yes…
a lot — and we mean a lot — of effort.
But when you get back home, that will probably be the part you remember with the greatest sense of achievement.

In a shared house, in a shared room, or in a hotel suggested by our guides—always in shared rooms for 2 or more people.
You’ll be free to choose the option that best suits your needs.

INFORMATION
Our Trips Are Not for Everyone
They are for those who want to experience real adventures, with real people, in real environments.
For those looking for excitement, adventure, and intense days.
For those who are not put off by the unexpected and understand that the best journeys are not always the easiest ones.
Do not expect a holiday spent relaxing on a sunbed: our trips are about physical activity, nature, effort, shared experiences, and the satisfaction that comes with it.
Before entering each canyon, our guides will explain the characteristics of the route, the possible objective risks, and the behaviour required to ensure everyone’s safety and respect for the environment.
When necessary, you will also be introduced to the main rope techniques used during the activity.
In short: there will be plenty of laughter and fun, but once we enter the canyon, safety and focus come first.
REQUIREMENTS TO PARTICIPATE
To join our trips, you need to understand what canyoning is and what the activity involves.
You are also required to:
- Be in good general health and have a level of fitness suitable for the planned activities.
- Be able to swim or, if you are not confident in the water, not be afraid of it and wear a life jacket, which must be requested at the time of booking.
- Have no heart or respiratory conditions that may be incompatible with the physical effort required for hiking and canyoning.
If you have any doubts about your physical condition, we recommend speaking with your doctor before the trip.
It is also advisable to take out travel insurance to cover any unexpected events.
Travel Insurance
We strongly recommend taking out travel insurance that covers unexpected events before and during the trip, including risks related to canyoning and hiking activities.
Because we love adventure — unexpected problems, a little less.
