BEFORE YOU GO

Plan your Canyon Rio Sass visit

Reserve the guided gorge experience

Allow two hours for the chosen visit; add arrival in Fondo and any village walk.

Book the guided gorge visit

Val di Non’s official guide describes a guided route on walkways and stairs. Check reservations, suitability and current conditions with the operator; the village walk is a different outing. [1]

MAKE IT YOUR TRIP

Guided canyon experience

The tourism board describes approximately two hours, 2.5 km and 1,200 steps. Choose it for the enclosed gorge and stairways, allowing time for check-in as well. [1]

Fondo without the equipped gorge

Explore Fondo’s streets if the guided gorge visit does not suit your party or date. The controlled canyon requires the guided visit.
