Canyoning involves descending steep rivers that have formed gorges over thousands or even millions of years of erosion. It’s a non-competitive sport, a real physical activity in the great outdoors.

Wearing a neoprene wetsuit, harness and helmet, you’ll walk, swim and overcome obstacles using ropes. But sometimes nature does things well and lets you slide down waterfalls or jump from varying heights into deep, wide pools.

Depending on the nature of the rock and the geological history of the massif, the water carves out its path differently.

The environment, both animal and plant, forms unique biotopes that have been preserved (and need to be preserved).
