The Fédération International de Canyonisme (FIC, Federation for International Canyoning) is excited and pleased to reveal its website: www.ficanyon.org. Please come and discover the history of RIC canyon festivals. Allow your jealously to be fed by fantastic photos. Stay abreast of international events.
Canyoning is definitely an international sport. FIC was officially established with the languages of French and English. However, with 15-member countries from both hemispheres, there are many more languages that will be used on our website. Be prepared to utilize Google Translate to the max.
Each year the FIC website will be the starting point for the upcoming Rassemblement Internationale de Canyon (RIC). This is the international canyon festival that was started in 2003 by Rich Carlson and Koen Viaene. At times it was also referred to as “Rendezvous International de Canyon.” For 2019, the event will be held in Colombia. But please be patient with the RIC 2019 Colombia organizers. They are not quite ready for the inundation of avid worldwide canyoneers. We have listed their email link on our website even though it is not yet live. We had to tease the more observant among you! This RIC will be held September 29 through October 6, 2019.
The FIC Calendar will list any canyon related event. Please just notify FIC of the details you wish to publish.
Special thanks go to Tena Nguyen, Artnfilemedia, for tremendous assistance to get the website up and running. It took us four years to get here, it was definitely worth the wait.
