Reserve your spot on the Skurda today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Arrive hydrated and fed
Eat a solid breakfast and bring at least 1.5 liters of water—physical exertion and cold water increase calorie and fluid needs.
Use provided kit but bring a swimsuit
Instructors supply wetsuits, harness and helmet, but your own quick-dry layers and a swimsuit improve comfort and fit.
Protect electronics
Carry a waterproof phone case or leave cameras behind—water and rocky drops make damage likely.
Listen to rope commands
Abseils and jumps are taught but everyone must follow guide instruction to stay safe in narrow, technical sections.
Swimsuit or quick-dry base layer
Worn under the provided wetsuit for comfort and quick-drying after swims.
