Additional Information

Embark on an exciting adventure to one of Montenegro’s most exhilarating adrenaline-fuelled attractions, the Skurda Canyon, a hidden gem located where you’d least expect it.

Your journey begins in the historic center of Kotor, situated right behind the city walls. Initially, you’d undertake a 1-hour hike to reach the starting point of the canyoning. Once there, we’ll suit you up with the appropriate gear and prep you for the thrilling descent. Inside the canyon, marvel at the breathtaking forms of rock walls and waterfalls reaching up to 25 meters. The canyon teems with hurdles to overcome such as navigating slippery stones, daring leaps into pools, swimming, and rappelling downwards via a rope. The canyon is accessible year-round. During the summer, the water remains solely in the pools, but the rest of the year witnesses mighty waterfalls. In summer, the pool water is relatively warm, so light attire suffices. However, in seasons with heavy waterfall flow, we provide you with a neoprene suit. The journey through the canyon lasts approximately 3 hours and concludes just beyond Kotor’s old town. This is a memory-making adventure you won’t soon forget.

Incredible experience for the thrill seekers! - We had an awesome day! Our hosts were fantastic and made us feel safe while having so much fun! The small group of 4 and our 2 guides made it such an amazing experience. We were super lucky that there had been some storms the previous days so the canyon was flowing! We were told usually it is dry this time of year. Would highly recommend this for adventure seekers!

Canyoning for adventurous families - We booked a canyoning tour in Skurda Canyon. It was a great experience for us and our two 11-year-old children. The hike to the gorge was an adventure in itself. We felt very safe thanks to the support of the two guides. Ivana and her partner ensured with a lot of calm, explanations and friendliness that it always seemed doable despite the great heights. They gave us and especially the children a lot of confidence and security. The tour is sporty and easy to do. The biggest challenge is the height. But you are rewarded with a great landscape and adrenaline. I think this tour is very suitable for sporty children who are not afraid of heights. Thank you, dear Ivana.

Great experience! - It was a great experience and I can recommend it to anyone. It's best to be a bit sporty, but you don't need any previous experience. The two guides will lead you safely through the beautiful gorge. If you want to experience an adventure in the middle of Kotor, this is the right place for you.

Must Do for the Adventurous! - Such an amazing experience! The hike and the canyon are both so beautiful. The guides were so nice, helpful and made us feel very safe. You get to see a completely different side of Kotor. I highly recommend this if you are adventurous and active! That being said; you must be in good shape to do this. The hike goes along steep cliffs and you are walking on sharp, loose rocks as well as climbing over slippery boulders. You don’t need experience repelling, you just need to be a bit athletic. The guides will tell you everything you need to know and give you lots of great tips. I highly recommend this tour!

I would do it again. - Please take the “extreme” in the title seriously. This was one of the greatest, memorable, and most challenging experience or my life. Ivana was fantastic and kept us safe. She picked us up at the port— it was only my wife and I in our tour. We took a hike up the mountain (this is very challenging and at some points I was scared). Get shoes that are great for rock climbing and water falls (non slip). When we finally reached the top, we started with a practice one and the starter going down. There was a total of 8 and 2 of them were about 25-30 meters, possibly taller (i didn’t have a measuring tape). Each one came with its own difficulties but the views were incredible and Ivana made us feel safe. We have had some rappelling experience prior but not much and we did great. The water was clear, beautiful and very refreshing. Plenty of nature and wild life. After you get to the bottom, you have a little more mountain scaling until you get back down. About 4 hours total, depending on how fast you go. We took our time. Montenegro is magical. 10/10 recommend. Climbing Gloves for yours hands is something to consider. We took a water bag with us but Ivana had one too and a bar that we ate midway through. She took photos from her phone and I’m posting the ones I took from mine. Sidenote, I would start with tights and then take them off and put on shorts when starting to your rappel, there lol a high grass and some pointy little plants that got me a few times.

Fantastic tour for adventure seekers - We loved our experience with Ivana and Vlado! They were super friendly and great guides and made us feel really comfortable and have a lot of fun! They also took a lot of really good photos of us. The tour itself was fantastic! We were a bit worried about the heat but it was actually quite cool in the canyon and the water was so refreshing! Would highly recommend for anyone who is looking for a bit of adventure.

Coolest excursion - This was an awesome excursion. Like nothing I have ever done. There was a great, fairly challenging hike to the canyon. The canyon was absolutely phenomenal to see. We repelled from about eight spots in the canyon. Our guys were so good and made us feel so comfortable and safe. They were very experienced in what they do. You definitely need to be in good physical condition to do this and you must wear sneakers. If I go back to Montenegro, I would do it again. We would have never known this Canyon existed if we didn’t do this.
