All along our intermediate level courses, you will take delight in going all over the Gorges de l’Ardèche (Ardèche gorges) from an entirely new perspective. It is the ideal occasion to contemplate up close the erosion of these gorges particularly famous for their beauty.

Our sports-orientated Ardeche canyoning courses

Enthusiasts of white-water water sports will enjoy canyoning in Vallon Pont d’Arc for white-water rafting, in the loveliest landscapes in the region. If you have already done canyoning, either in the Ardèche or elsewhere, our guides offer you a range of courses comprising more technical courses and a few thrills and spills.

To cross these more abrupt obstacles, such as high-flowing waterfalls or abrupt cliffs, your guide will teach you to use a rope to secure your passage, or possibly to go down using abseiling. On some canyons, you will also be able to penetrate caves or cross sumps.

For all of this selection, it is not imperative to have already done canyoning in the Ardèche. If you are in great physical condition and if you are particularly comfortable in the water, you can, of course, discover the beauty of sports-orientated canyoning, punctuated by obstacles.
