Tour programme
- Preparation:
Meet at our base in Les Assions, 15 minutes before the booked time, where you can get to know the whole team. You will then drive 45 minutes to the activity site in your own vehicle.
- Tour:
Once we arrive, we'll take a 20-minute approach walk. In the canyon, we will alternate between jumps of up to 8 m, slides of 6 m, abseiling and swimming in the Chassezac. You can take a break between two descents to have a picnic by the water on the warm granite. As this is a full day trip, you will have time to do the jumps and slides as many times as you like!
- Return:
Once you reach the end of the canyon, you will walk for 45 minutes with a big drop in altitude to get back to your vehicle.
