Description

Initiation and discovery canyon, the gorges of Malvaux will introduce you to the joys of canyoning in the heart of the Jura.

The route begins with a walk along the bed of the Saine river before reaching the first jump, a few metres high. What follows is a succession of small rapids and jumps, with opportunities for swimming, slides and side jumps.

Note the presence of a natural siphon in the middle of the canyon which, depending on the water level, can be freediving. The canyon ends with a 7-metre jump into a magnificent waterfall (not mandatory, as always in canyoning).

If you fancy more vertical adventures, you can follow me on the beautiful via ferrata of "Les échelles de la mort" in the Doubs valley, Les Baumes du Verneau above Nans-sous-Sainte-Anne and La Roche du Mont in the Loue valley. And why not discover rock climbing in Baume-les-Dames?
