How to prepare for canyoning in the FORRA DEL CASCO


Get some suitable shoes
The best footwear is hiking boots. If you don't have any, you can bring good sneakers, preferably high-tops.
WARNING!!! If you have hiking boots that you haven't worn in a while, the soles may come off when they come into contact with water, leaving you... barefoot!


A t-shirt might be useful to you
Wearing a T-shirt under your wetsuit prevents your skin from coming into contact with the neoprene. It helps maintain body heat. It's also a good choice from a hygiene standpoint.
A Lycra shirt is truly ideal!
A regular cotton T-shirt is also fine.

Wear a swimsuit
Under the wetsuit it is definitely the best garment to have.
A complete change of clothes
Bring a backpack with a complete change of clothes to wear once you're finished canyoning. A towel may also be useful.

Other useful tips
If I wear glasses...
If they're not strictly necessary, avoid carrying them.
If you absolutely must, get a string to tie them, one specifically designed for sports. This will prevent them from getting lost under the waterfalls.

If I have long hair...
Boys and girls with long hair absolutely must have a hair tie. Hair can get caught in the figure-eight descender. Therefore, it must be tied back in a bun and never loosely tied over the shoulders.



If I want to bring cameras or cell phones...
They can only be brought if they are waterproof or contained in special waterproof containers.
The possibility of carrying them while being careful not to get them wet is absolutely excluded.
