Activity description

The magnificent Canyon du Tapoul is found in the heart of Cévennes National Park!

Canyoning consists of going downriver, in order to do this you’ll be swimming, gliding, using natural waterslides and abseiling down waterfalls. The daredevils amongst you can even jump down instead.

This activity is reserved for people who like to see a different facet of nature and enjoy water sports.  

Children as young as 9 are welcome, but summertime (between July – September) is encouraged as the water will be warmer and the water level will be lower.

This half day excursion really is exceptional, as you won’t be walking much however, you will be jumping as high as 10 metres (the jumps are not obligatory). If jumping is not your thing you can abseil or even slide down, there’s always a way of adapting the canyon to your level.

Die Zeit verging wie im Flug. Es war für uns das erste Mal und hat riesigen Spaß gemacht. So nah an der Natur, aktiv zu sein, ist eine Wahnsinnserfahrung. Die Route war sicher herausfordernd, aber auch für blutige Anfänger unter Anleitung des Guides problemlos machbar. Alle nennenswerten Sprünge konnten umgangen oder abgeseilt werden.
