POINT OF INITIATION TO CARRY OUT CANOPY IN LUNAHUANÁ
We are in Lunahuaná, where we will take a bus to the great Jerónimo Valley and then we will walk (it will be approximately 15 minutes).
Our great adventure begins in the upper part of the town of San Jerónimo at the foot of the river Cañete and ends minutes later near a field of ropes.
DISTANCE
To do Canopy there are two exciting routes:
The first route is divided into two sections:
"El Cormoron" of 350 meters crossing the extensive river Cañete
"The Carpenter" of 400 meters that crosses the river again, but back.
The second route, by the way, the longest and most exciting, is also divided into sections:
"El Vencejo" of about 500 meters where you can go a speed of 70 kilometers per hour.
"La Lechuza”, more cautious of 200 meters We continue with the fastest, ¿for those who love to feel the full adrenaline? The Picaflor ?, 100 meters.
