Tour provider's comments

If you are a healthy person with normal mobility, canyoning activities are for you. You do not need to be super-fit!

Grmečica is more suitable for active people who enjoy a bit of adrenaline, while Jereka is easier and more suitable for laid back people and first-time canyoners. Pick what suits you best.

Note, the tour is not suitable for pregnant women, people with mobility impairments, people with spine injuries and non-swimmers. If you have any health issues please consult with a guide.
