About this tour
A three-hour technical canyon descent through the Écouges gorge near Grenoble, featuring a mix of abseiling, natural slides, and jumps.

Guides provide technical kit and capture action shots throughout.

- Natural water slides that propel you downslope with real speed
- Option to abseil in pairs down the spiral section
- All technical gear and neoprene protection supplied
- Professional photos taken during the experience
- Continuous mix of jumps, slides, and rope work
What to expect
Expect a physically demanding three hours. You'll enter the canyon and move between abseiling stations and natural features in quick succession. The slides are genuinely fast—your guide will brief you on body position and control. Jumps range from straightforward to challenging depending on water flow. The three main abseils require focus and fitness; the final one involves a spinning descent best managed in pairs for confidence. Water is cold year-round. This is technical canyon work, not a leisure float.
