We meet on the car park in Rousses (Parking Via Ferrata et Canyoning, 48400 Rousses, France)
Details
Come and discover one of the most beautiful canyoning descent in the Cévennes: with its great diversity of obstacles, the Tapoul Canyon is a paradise for sports enthusiasts who are looking for the best sensations! But the tour also remains suitable for the youngest or those who do not yet have canyoning experience with certain obstacles that can be avoided.
Tour programmePreparation
We meet in Rousses, on the car park where you will be provided with your equipment. In July and August, the municipal shuttle leaves here for the canyon; in low season, you will have the opportunity to get a little closer by car by following your guide. Once you have arrived, you will go directly to the canyon's departure point where safety instructions will be explained to you before you can jump into the water.
Tour
Are you ready to take up Tapoul's challenges? The canyon offers you a very complete tour with a lot of sensations: jumps (always avoidable), abseiling (one of which ends in a mini-zip line), slides and of course numerous basins where you can let yourself be carried by the current... Between two obstacles, do not forget to admire the wild landscapes of the Tarn Gorges, which make the Tapoul an unforgettable canyon both for its tour and its natural setting!
Arrival
Once the tour is completed, a short 10-minute walk awaits you to return to the start of the shuttle that will take you back to the parking lot or directly to your car in low season.
