CANYON of BARBAIRA in the Roya valley (Alpes maritimes 06)

Descente du canyon de Barbaira en Italie. Canyoning en journée dans les Alpes Maritimes.

The canyon of Barbaira is only 1 hour drive from Nice to the Italian border.

Located in Italia, it is in an atmosphere of  pure « dolce vita » that you will savour the end of this canyoning day.

The canyon of Barbaira, which is one of the most beautiful of the region, offers a total disorientation ! The crystal clear water is turquoise, its vegetation luxuriant and its exceptional location and sunshine give the journey a tropical a tmosphere  (one of most the warmest in the region).

 Accessible to everybody because there is no particular difficulty, the canyon of Barbaira starts by a 40 minutes hiking, then a series of jumps (never obligatory) of various heights interspersed with some abseiling not exceeding 12 meters which will lead you to the final part.

The canyon of Barbaira : a tropical atmosphere !

Located in Italy, we start and we return to the village of Roccheta Nervina where we can eat or have a drink at anytime of the day.
