Santiago Trip Overview
The water of Matacanes Canyon has been flowing for thousands of years and thus creating mystical shapes in its bed. The crystal clear waters of the river are suitable for swimming and offer a true experience of untouched nature with its cliffs up to 12 meters high, waterfalls, natural pools, subterranean tunnels and a 30 meters unique waterfall. The guide will give you a life-jacket, a helmet, neoprene wetsuit, harness, and the expedition is ready to set off. The sound of the river becomes louder as you descend into the canyon, for almost 12 kilometers you will be surrounded by beautiful landscapes and nature. Walking through the river and the rapids, going through the subterranean tunnels and caves, swimming in natural pools, going around waterfalls and lakes – all of this is canyoning!
