Descent of the Bénétant Canyon at La Bâthie, near Albertville

Located at the foot of the Beaufortain Massif, the Bénétant Canyon offers a sporting canyoning route in Savoie, close to the resorts of the Tarentaise Valley (La Plagne, Courchevel, Méribel, etc.). Comprising several abseiling descents up to 25 metres high, as well as numerous opportunities for jumps up to 6 metres (all optional) and a few natural slides that can be bypassed, this canyon requires you to be in good physical condition, particularly for the 30-minute uphill approach walk, with a difference in altitude of a good hundred metres. So if you are not athletic, opt for another adventure like the Eaux Rousses Canyon!

The Bénétant Canyon takes you on a 2 to 2.5-hour canyoning trip in La Bâthie, between Albertville and Moûtiers. In small groups of no more than 8 participants, you will be accompanied by a qualified and experienced instructor who will look after your safety while advising you on the various techniques required to overcome the obstacles in your path. Some of the abseiling will take place under waterfalls, so you will have plenty of time to cool off and enjoy your adventure! All fully equipped (neoprene wetsuit and socks, helmet, harness, etc.) so you can enjoy the experience comfortably and safely.

Whether you are a thrill-seeker or simply looking for a new outdoor adventure, the Bénétant Canyon has something to surprise you with its obstacle-packed course. So if you are passing by the Tarentaise Valley, just 1 hour's drive from Annecy and 45 minutes from Chambéry, don't miss out on this canyoning experience in La Bâthie!
