In Castellane, in the Verdon, Buena Vista Rafting organises guided canyoning outings, among other activities. Routes run through nearby gorges and narrow ravines, where participants move between water, rock and vertical sections under the guidance of instructors.
Canyoning with abseiling
Depending on the chosen route, the activity includes abseiling, zip lines and natural obstacles. Haut-Jabron and Saint-Auban are among the advertised canyoning routes. The provider distinguishes these trips from river walks along the bed of the Verdon, which take place differently.
Choosing the right route
Check age requirements, confidence in water, absence of fear of heights, duration and required ability. A canyoning trip involving abseiling is not necessarily a dry canyon: confirm this when choosing an option. The variety of Verdon outings is Buena Vista's appeal for exploring the region with a guide.
