Description

In the centre of a vast hall inside the Dent de Crolles, the Elisabeth waterfall has been enthroned undivided for centuries. It pours out the waters of the Guiers Mort, visible from outside.

But the waterfall is not easily approached: it asks its suitors to overcome the labyrinth and its maze of confusing galleries. At the end of this challenge, a final abseiling descent allows to reach the objective: the cascade waterfall.

This round trip taking place in Isère, in the Chartreuse massif, is a sporty, intense and playful route that ends with a vertiginous finish over the immense Hurricane hall.

A caving trip? More than that: a must!
