This activity runs from:
APRIL TO OCTOBER.

 

The south of the Drome is an outstanding example of a limestone region with the most beautiful canyons.

 

Encircled by the massifs of the Vercors and the Diois, this region is home to numerous canyons prised and appreciated by experienced locals and amateurs alike.

 

The canyons are fast flowing mountain torrents which have carved out and sculpted their course deep into the rock which the flow through.


 

CANYONING
Will take you deep into the ancient heart of the canyons, where you will encounter sights and sounds that cannot be found anywhere else in the world. Aquatic mazes, luxuriant flora and surroundings that will take your breath away…

During your descent you will abseil down water falls, slide the length of natural slides to plunge into deep magnificent pools.
Then you will continue by jumping into and swimming along deep narrow passages.
