Highlights
  • David Thompson Resort - Adrenaline canyons are for those who have never been canyoning before or only a few times and are in good physical condition. Tours are usually between 5 to 6 hours depending on the size of the group.

You should be comfortable with heights, though we can accommodate those in the group that are less at ease and looking to challenge themselves. However, all rappels are mandatory once we are descending the canyon. All jumps and slides can be avoided by rappelling them (if the canyon has these).

We might have to climb a few viaferrata ladders to access the canyon on this trip. A minimum of upper body strenght is required for that.

You should be prepared to be fully submerged during this trip. We can accomodate people who don’t know how to swim (notice needed)

We will encounter some waterfalls and other obstacles that we will pass using specific canyoning techniques. For Adrenaline tours, you don’t need to have previous experience, just a sense of adventure. Our guides will teach you the rest!

We guide in a multitude of canyons that allow us to operate during most of the season. We usually plan the trip the day before the tour to decide which canyon is best suited to the group.

  • All necessary canyoning equipment provided
What's Not Included
  • Bathing suit & Towel
  • Closed toe shoes (light hiking or running shoes that can get wet)

Amazed by this experience - I didn't really know what to expect but this tour had a lot of parts: hiking, scrambling, rappelling, water... Our guides Katie and Olivia were truly the best part of the day. They were encouraging and supportive, best of all they were steadying and calming in some of the more stressful parts. By the end of the day I was amazed and proud of all the things I had discovered that I was capable of. The only thing I would have changed would be that I would have worn stickier hiking shoes because my running shoes were very slippery on the rappelling parts. I would definitely recommend this tour.

EPIC! A must try!! - You knows those experiences you have when you can’t wipe the smile off your face?! That was us the entire time on the adrenaline tour! My husband and I didn’t quite know what we were getting in to after receiving the tour as a gift…but following a short 45 min hike we realized how much fun we were about to have. Shooting down natural slides, rappelling right next to and in to waterfalls, doing the “human shimmy” against opposing rock surfaces, zip lining and trudging through the river. EPIC! The guides were wonderful, kind, patient and a lot of fun. If you’re kind of thinking about heading out…go for it, you won’t regret it!!

Best day in the Rockies! - I’ve been on a couple trips with these guys and every time has been such a fantastic day! The trips are all expertly guided, with every moment filled with excitement as well as the time to enjoy the beauty of the canyon. All the natural slides, and smooth rappels makes for an unforgettable day. The guides all have amazing energy to keep you going, and are both safety conscious and empathetic so as to always ensure everyone in the group feels safe and comfortable. No amount of words can describe the feeling you get from going canyoning with these guys, highly recommend.

Splashing good time! - As soon as we arrived, we knew we were in for a treat. We got a warm welcome from our guide and he helped us quite a bit with getting all our gear on. After a quick safety speech, we started our adventure up! Incredibly fun trip, rappelling down waterfalls, with some sliding into some pools of water. The features in the canyon were out of this world cool, and while it seemed a bit daunting at times, the instructions were easy to follow, and would for sure jump on the opportunity for another trip if we're in the area again. Highly recommend!
