Gilles and his team of qualified instructors will introduce you to canyoning. Enjoy the most beautiful gorges in the Cévennes: the Chassezac gorges!

Canyoning in the Gorges du Haut-Chassezac

These gorges form one of the region's most spectacular canyons. Stretching from the Vivarais cévenol to the Ardèche garrigues, the Chassezac rises in Lozère at an altitude of over 1503m! The cliffs of these gorges rise up like a wall, separating the massif from the Cevennes. These gorges offer crystal-clear waters and a reserve of exceptional fauna, flora and animals!

Obstacles: natural slides, jumps, abseiling

Your guide: the canyoning offered by our partner is supervised by qualified and experienced guides.

How does it work?

Your qualified instructor Etienne will meet you at the leisure center. After an equipment session and briefing, you'll have to make your own way to the Haut-Chassezac canyon in La Garde-Guérin (45-minute drive, or an on-site meeting is possible if you're nearby). The activity begins with a 20-minute approach walk down a steep path to the canyon.
We then spend around 4 hours in the water, alternating between jumps (up to 8 meters, optional), slides on natural toboggans, swimming, abseiling and bouldering. Picnic lunch is served by the water's edge. The return walk takes 45 minutes, with a steep climb back to the car.

Whether with family, friends or a bachelor party, canyoning is a great way to spend a day in the great outdoors!
