Al mattino, in mezzo ad un paesaggio fantastico, ho fatto l’attività di Canyoning che consiglio a chiunque voglia trascorrere qualche ora sperduto in mezzo alla natura incontaminata e godere del solo fruscio dell’acqua.. ringrazio Alberto Melari, simpaticissimo e ben “navigato” nel settore, che mi ha guidato nell’attività e mi ha fornito informazioni utilissime anche sui su nodi e nozioni che vanno oltre la semplice esperienza nel canyon
