Highlights
- Via Str. per Tremalzo, 6 - The most refreshing and fun activity of the summer! The Lake Garda area is the perfect place to try Canyoning. Deep water jumps, natural and spectacular slides will allow us to follow the course of a beautiful alpine stream. The canyons carved by water over millions of years are one of the most incredible places that exist. Canyoning with the Mmove Alpine Guides is exciting, magical and simply unforgettable.
A narrow and deep gorge just a stone’s throw from Lake Garda, suitable for those who like to jump into deep pools or thrilled with rope.
The Rio Nero stream is located on the Ampola Pass, at the end of the Valle di Ledro (Trentino). The altitude and its position in a narrow gorge make it suitable in the summer months to escape from the heat of the valley bottom. A spectacular slide starts the fun, passing by dips and drops down to 20 meters that bring us back to the start in about 2.00 hours. The tour, given the numerous possibilities of exit along the river and the more open environment than the Palvico, make it suitable for beginners who want to approach this beautiful activity in a softer way.

Incredible experience, make sure you're fit! - An incredible experience, adrenaline filled, jumping from waterfalls and belaying down higher cliffs. The guide was amazing, spoke English, and Italian so catered to everyone in the group and was very knowledgeable on the route and the jumps.
There are rock slides, but some have a bump at the bottom and you can easily hit your head or back so make sure you don't have any problems before you go. Our group was aged 25-30 and healthy, but I wouldn't risk taking my dad to this.
Summary: Incredible for fit, adventurous people.

What a wonderful experience - Really great, my father and I were thrilled. If you have the opportunity to have this experience, then take the chance and do it. Everything was explained in detail and we felt safe in the hands of the guide at all times, big compliments to him 😊

Amazing experience, highly recommended when in Riva del Garda! - What an amazing activity, one of the highlights of our Italy trip. Our guide was very comforting and encouraging, he tailored the course for our groups ability. The jumps were exhilarating and the canyon itself was beautiful!

An adventurous afternoon in Rio Nero 😊😊 - I had the pleasure of booking a canyoning with the guys from Mmove to spend a different day.
I contacted on whatsapp to book the activity and a very kind guy (Matteo 😊) took care of everything and recommended the activity based on my needs, really super! The meeting point is in the Prabi area near their shop where you can park your car, motorbike or bicycle comfortably and for free, which is not a given in Arco. You will be conveniently transferred by mmove van from the meeting point to the place where the canyoning will take place. The very kind and well-trained guide made us feel at ease straight away (Gabriel, you are really strong). The activity is nothing short of fantastic, just enough time for a briefing (to explain how everything will proceed) and to wear suitable clothing, neoprene suit and socks, boots, life jacket and helmet. 1,2,3 ready we start with jumps into crystal clear waters, short abseils from small waterfalls (25 m 😄😄) and slides into the stream. What can I say, you don't get bored. This was my first time and it definitely won't be my last with the guys at Mmove. On their website you can find many activities such as climbing, via ferrata, bike tours, Dolomite tours and much more. What can I say, well done! See you soon! 😊😊

A great unforgettable experience, adventure in the flowing and foaming water! - A great, unforgettable experience, an adventure in the flowing and foaming water! I didn't think that I could do it as a non-swimmer over the age of 50. Thanks to the experienced and highly competent leader, Andrea, it was possible. The great thing is that you don't need any personal things like shoes or a helmet, everything is there! I can 100% recommend it and would love to come back, Natalja Donskoj

Plenty of action, good mix of slides, jumps and abseils. Highest jump around 6m and highest abseil was around 8m down a waterfall.
Guides where very professional and ensured everone had a great time.
For sure doing more tours with Mmove bext time we are here.

Fun, but in a rollercoaster way - We were in quite a large group with two guides. One of our guides was laid back and patiënt, the other one was hyped and loud and seemed impatient. It was fun for a while, but it felt like we were (at times literally) dragged through the canyon. At one point we were secured and told to slide over the edge of a cliff without knowing what was over the edge. That made this more of a rollercoaster experience and at times a bit painfull as you were pretty much hoisted down in fast pace off the cliffs that weren't jumpable and it didn't feel as actively rapelling as we did a few times before. We decided to cancel another canyoning trip the next day. It's a matter of taste of course, but we didn't dig the rapid pace. The canyon itself was amazing.
