The meeting point for the tours is in Gordona in P.za S. Martino, in front of the big church of the village at 8,45, except for different arrangements.
To reach Gordona from Milano drive 107 km, 1,30h by car, nearly all on highway, look on the MAPS to check it.

Bring with you a swimsuit, a big towel, eventually a t-shirt to put under the neoprene suit. We provide: canyoning shoes, complete wetsuit 5 mm with hood and socks, certified helmet and harness.
Spectacles and Contact lenses ?
You can use your normal glasses but it's better to tie them with a sportcord. Contact lenses are better, you only need to close your eyes underwater because they can shift.
