With another automobile, we will continue uphill to the higher parking site (5 minutes). From here, a 15 minute trail will lead us to the canyon and after the safety and activity briefing we will finally enter the water.

The descent unfolds with small jumps, slides and pools to swim across. The setting is beautiful and wild, perfect for a first experience and to discover CANYONING. Once we have finished and reached the automobiles parked at the base of the descent, we change into our dry clothes, go pick up the car left upstream, and head for home.
