This journey takes place in the Ribeira dos Caldeirões Natural Park, a remarkable park in the north-eastern region of São Miguel Island (approximately 45 minutes drive from the city of Ponta Delgada). Upon arrival, we will give you your personal equipment and then take a short walk of approximately 15 minutes to our starting destination for our first safety briefing. Along the way, you will encounter vertical obstacles in the form of waterfalls that can be overcome using abseiling techniques. The tallest waterfall is 8 metres high. With some short walking sections in between, there is also a fun area with a slide and a 5-metre jump.

Amazing experience! It was our first time canyoning, and we were both nervous at first. Our guides made us feel safe throughout the entire adventure. The scenery was stunning and took us to places you can't experience by simply walking the trails. This was the highlight of our trip to São Miguel.

A very fun and beautiful experience from start to finish. We chose level 1, and it was perfect, even for me, who had never done it before. The environment is spectacular, and the instructors, Eduardo and Víctor, made us feel safe and enjoy the activity at all times. We were a group of only four people, which made everything much more personalized and without waits. The equipment was in perfect condition, and the organization was excellent. Additionally, they took many photos and videos during the tour so that we could take home a nice memory. Without a doubt, one of the best experiences of our vacation in San Miguel! We would repeat with them without thinking twice!

Great experience immersed in nature, small group so that everyone can enjoy the experience whether they are beginners or have already practiced the activity. Rodrigo, the guide, was very capable, helpful, and patient. Timely and efficient service from Basaltic, I highly recommend the experience with them to get away from the typical tourist tours with very large groups. Perfect way to enjoy Ribeira dos Caldeiros.
