Course Overview
The ICOpro Canyoneer Initiation (CAI) training course provides the basis for all canyoning practice. This standard course is taught in every single ICOpro affiliated center worldwide, and is included in every Adventure & Spirit canyoning tour. It provides you with basic knowledge about the techniques used to progress in a canyon: you will learn & practice how to rappel (abseil) waterfalls, how to jump and/or slide in deep natural pools, basic team work skills, in-canyon communication, all of which while having a lot of fun in the outdoors!
The ICOpro CAI is the perfect way to experience canyoning for the first time. This short course is the most complete safety briefing for beginners. After learning, you will practice the newly-acquired skills all under the supervision of a qualified ICOpro Instructor level 1 or above. Once you complete the ICOpro CAI course, you will be certified and become a member of the biggest canyoning organization in the world (ICOpro). You will be able to participate on the ICOpro Canyoneer 1-2-3 training course, the next step of progression.
