Activity Snapshot
Activity description
The Malvaux gorges, beauty of the Haut-Jura, reveal its secrets to us through a succession of jumps, each one more playful than the next.
Water hiking makes it easy for novices to discover the activity. Indeed, after a short walk of approach, this descent makes it possible to take its marks in the activity and then to discover, its big sister, very close, the Langouette.
(Possibility to couple the 2 descents during the day).
A briefing by the instructors, feet in the water, will explain to you the different modes of movement, walking, swimming, floating and jumping.
After a short walk in the river, you are already familiar with the environment before arriving at the first jump.
Depending on each one, we can slide, bypass or jump from 1 to 6 meters!
You will then discover the famous siphoning basin and a multitude of natural pots filled with water where you can relax and have fun.
Finally, the highlight of the show, a 20-meter waterfall shows us the way to go and the ultimate 8-meter jump will undoubtedly remain one of your best memories in canyoning!
