Medjurečki Canyon Canyoning: Abseiling & Waterfall Jumps

Descend sun-warmed cliffs and splash through a canyon that never dries up

Medjurečki Canyon canyoning is a five-hour activity on Montenegro's Adriatic Coast where you abseil down 11 waterfalls, jump from heights of 2 to 8 meters at your choice, and slide down natural chutes with a live English-speaking guide. All gear (neoprene suit, helmet, harness and shoes) is provided. Children from age 10 are welcome, and moderate fitness is enough to complete the route.

The experience

Medjurečki Canyon is the most interesting canyon in Montenegro for canyoning, located between Bara and Ulcinj and fed year-round so the water stays cold and clear even in summer. The canyon runs through the village of Međurečje and is oriented so the sun warms the entire route: important because you'll be in the water for most of the five hours. The activity itself does not demand extreme physical fitness. What matters is a moderate level of conditioning and comfort moving through water and over rock.

During the passage you abseil down 11 waterfalls, jump from heights between 2 and 8 meters (you choose whether to jump at each one), and slide down a couple of natural rock chutes. The guide leads the group through the canyon, sets up the ropes and harness for each abseil, and stays with you the whole way. Neoprene suits with hoods, socks, canyoning harness, helmet and specialized shoes are all included. The guide also captures pictures and videos of the group that you receive afterward.

Public transportation runs to the canyon, so you don't need a rental car or private transfer to reach the starting point. The five-hour window means you can fit this into a day split between other activities on the coast, or make it the centerpiece of a morning or afternoon depending on when your group prefers to start.

Top questions

Can children come?

Yes. Ticket types: Child (10 to 17 years). Children under 10 can't be included in the booking.

Can I jump at every waterfall or can I abseil instead?

Jumps are at your request at each waterfall, so you choose which ones to jump and which to abseil. Heights range from 2 to 8 meters, and the guide will show you the landing zone before you decide.

What is included in the price and what do I need to bring?

The neoprene suit with hood, socks, harness, helmet, shoes, guide services, snacks and photos and videos are all included. Bring a towel, a change of clothes for after, and any personal items you want to keep dry in a waterproof bag.

Is Medjurečki Canyon open year-round or only in summer?

Canyoning is performed during summer because the canyon is one of the few in Montenegro that does not dry up during that season and the sun orientation keeps the water at a workable temperature.

How do I get to the canyon if I don't have a car?

Public transportation options are available nearby the canyon. The operator can advise on the closest stop and walking distance when you book.

What is the minimum age to do this activity?

Children are welcome from age 10 and up. Participants should have at least a moderate level of physical fitness to complete the five-hour route safely.
