This guide : The accessible spots from Fréjus, the packages, the outline of a trip, our local expertise.
Three levels of routes between Var and Alpes-Maritimes, from family slides to the great sporting descent — the Siagne from 30 minutes.
On the border of the Var and the Alpes-Maritimes, a canyon accessible between limestone cliffs and Mediterranean vegetation. Toboggans and small jumps (2-5 m) in crystalline basins.
The ideal introduction in the Var, from age 8, on a fun and progressive course.
At the gates of the Verdon, the Jabron can be enjoyed all season thanks to its regular flow. Two beautiful slides, jumps and a 12m reminder.
A 1.5-2 hour discovery trail in a unique limestone setting, accessible for ages 8 and up.
For the experienced: the canyon of the'Artuby near the Gorges du Verdon, the Riolan (among the most beautiful in Europe) and the great classic of Gorges du Loup.
Abseil, jumps and swims in spectacular gorges, full day.
Fréjus's main asset: the Gorges de la Sign, at only 30 minutes, are perfect for a family introduction. For a more complete outing, the Gorges du Loup (1h) remain the regional benchmark. The canyon is confirmed the day before by SMS according to the flow rate.
These canyons are shared with neighbouring towns: one can also descend into them from Saint-Raphaël (nearby), Saint-Tropez and Toulon. The outing can easily be extended with a swim in the coves of the Esterel.
We practice May to September, water being the most pleasant in the height of summer. To ring the changes, paragliding + canyoning combo Link the flight and descent to a day.
It’s the water that makes all the difference: turquoise, crystal-clear and sometimes cool, it transforms every pool into a natural swimming pool and every slide into a life-size water slide. Between tackling the technical sections, you can take the time to swim, admire the rock sculpted by the floods and enjoy the silence that only the gorges can offer. A timeless escape, just a few kilometres from the hustle and bustle of the coast.
A question often arises.
Toboggans, plunges into pools and abseils under waterfalls: a preview of what awaits you, guided by a state-certified instructor. Optional photo and video souvenirs available.
From the very first pool, it's a total immersion: the turquoise water, the coolness of the neoprene, the echo of the limestone walls. Your guide goes first over each obstacle to show you the technique, then accompanies you step-by-step — jumps always remain optional, the pace adapts to the group. The photos taken during the descent are the best way to relive the adventure and share it with your loved ones.
From family introductions to sports days, a package for every desire. All-inclusive prices: equipment, state-certified guide, and insurance.
In detail: the Half-day taster (€55), our most popular package, lasts 2 hours on site and is suitable for beginners and families alike, for children aged 8 and over — slides, optional jumps and swimming in the pools. The Sports day (€80) opens up the more challenging courses from age 12, with impressive rappels and full immersion. Finally, the paragliding + canyoning combo (190 €/person) includes a morning flight and an afternoon descent, with photos and videos included — an exclusive offer on the Côte d'Azur.
Each price includes all technical equipment (5 mm neoprene wetsuit, helmet, harness, descender), supervision by a state-certified guide, and insurance. You only pay on-site, after your session: no upfront payment, and free rescheduling if the weather or water levels are not suitable. Groups, birthdays, and hen/stag parties benefit from dedicated slots and tailored prices.
A simple and reassuring route, supervised from A to Z by your state-certified guide. The canyon is confirmed by SMS the day before, depending on the weather and water flow.
Check-in at the car park confirmed by SMS, then donning the 5mm wetsuit, helmet, and harness – everything is provided.
Jumping position, using the descender, communication signals. No jargon, just practical advice.
10 to 30 minutes depending on the canyon to reach the start, time to warm up and admire the Pre-Alps.
Toboggans, optional jumps and abseils to the rhythm of the band, then back to the car park and debriefing.
First slide, first thrills: your guide goes first to show you the technique, then accompanies you through each obstacle. Jumps are always optional — you can bypass if you prefer — and the pace adapts to the group. No experience is necessary: you just need to be able to swim 25 metres and be comfortable in the water. Afterwards, you get changed, share your impressions, and collect your photos if you chose that option.
As for what to bring, it’s nothing complicated: just make sure you have a swimsuit to wear under your wetsuit, an old pair of closed-toe trainers that won’t mind getting soaked, a towel, and some dry clothes for the journey home. There’s no need to bring any specialist kit – we provide everything. Just remember to let the guide know about any specific concerns (fear of water, health issues): the trip is always tailored to the group, never the other way round.
