The Vercors is home to some of France’s most spectacular canyoning descents! Jump into pools of crystal clear water, abseil down waterfalls and slide down natural water slides.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Canyoning<\/p>\n

The best Canyoning Descents in the Vercors<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n

The Vercors Massif is a mountainous plateaux straddling the departements of Is\u00e8re and Dr\u00f4me in the French pre-Alps. Fast flowing rivers originating high in the Alps have carved deep canyons through the limestone making the Vercors a paradise for canyoning. Within the boundaries of the Natural Regional Park<\/a> there are more than a dozen canyons to explore.<\/p>\n

Experienced canyoning enthusiasts will love Le Ruzand and the upper section of Les Ecouges with its huge 68 metre waterfall abseil<\/strong>. First timers will enjoy more accessible descents like Les Carmes and Le Betton which aren’t as committing, but still have a good mix of smaller abseils, jumps, slides and whitewater swimming<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A commercial canyoning trip will favour the most beautiful and spectacular descents over the more technical canyons. That makes canyoning a great fun group activity<\/strong>, where the thrill-seekers in the group can take on the big jumps and the guide can help more tentative members of the group climb or abseil down.<\/p>\n

So, if you have a sense of adventure and you want to experience the wild side of the Vercors, a canyoning trip is hard to beat!<\/p>\n
