Along this descent of approximately 1 km, we will make seven waterfalls, with a combination of abseiling techniques and several jumps, in a mix of adrenaline and fun.
The longest jump will be 8 meters (approximately) and the longest rappel will be 18 meters (approximately), with the possibility of jumping through the waterfall at the base of 6 meters.
