The Pont du Diable canyon is the Terréo Canyoning team's favorite. Carved out of the rock like a saber cut, this canyon offers a wild atmosphere and a wide variety of technical obstacles: jumps, abseils, ejector slides and swimming pools in emerald-colored water.

Canyon du Pont du Diable

Guided tour - Intermediate level - Free photos

An enchanting first section to familiarize yourself with the elements, followed by a second, highly challenging section in an exceptional narrow gorge - some passages are no more than a metre wide. This unforgettable descent includes a challenging passage perched high above the water, a superb ejector slide and long reaches to swim between two vertical cliffs.

How does it work?

At the parking lot, your guide will give you all the equipment you need: wetsuit, neoprene socks, harness and helmet.

You then walk 5 minutes to the start of the canyon.

Then the descent begins. On the program (nothing is compulsory): abseils, technical jumps up to 7 meters, a safe passage in opposition on a handrail, a ten-meter ejector slide and swimming in large emerald pools. The canyon is very steep - the guides ensure that every obstacle is cleared safely.

Once completed, you'll reach the parking lot in 10 minutes. Photos of the outing are free and can be downloaded the same evening.
