Adventure lovers in Nepal have a host of adventure activities to indulge in. An adventure sport that is gaining wide popularity among adventurers is the sport of canyoning.

Canyoning, as it is known in Europe, has been a popular adventure sport for many years.

In America this sport has been gaining popularity in the last 2 decades. Whereas in Nepal, cannoning as a technical sport is yet to gain traction. Canyoning is a very adventurous activity performed technically using a single rope and descending down through the flowing spring to the base. The adventure activity involves a number of outdoor activities that people of various age groups can enjoy. The remote and rugged Himalayan terrains surrounding Nepal are just the perfect destinations to enjoy the sport of canyoning.
