Tuscany today counts about twenty equipped canyons, mostly concentrated in the north of the region, from Calvana to Lunigiana, affecting the Tuscan side of the Apennines and the Apuan Alps (both on the sea-side and inside), reaching south to Mount Amiata. The different geological formations determine very different paths in terms of length, height and difficulty.
