Winter canyoning

Not even cold!

As you may have noticed, the last few winter seasons in the Pyrenees have been marked by mild weather conditions and a real lack of snow.

To meet public demand for new winter activities, we have diversified our outing offering.

Since 2020, we have been offering winter canyoning.

Jumps from 1 to 6m

(Not compulsory)

Slides

Rope belays or zipline

“Canyoning in winter ? These Pyreneans are crazy !”

And no, the sky has not fallen on our heads! Even if the activity is mainly practiced during the summer, nothing prevents canyoning enthusiasts, and more generally mountain enthusiasts, from trying their hand at descending snow-covered canyons. This still little-known (some would say unusual!) winter sport allows you to discover the canyons dressed in their best winter outfit. With friends, as a couple or as a family, it’s a great opportunity to explore the Pyrenees mountains, other than by practicing more traditional winter sports like skiing or snowshoe hiking.

Not even cold?

It’s all about the equipment. And in the equipment department, we take care of almost everything! We’ll lend you a super thick neoprene suit to keep you warm, a lycra, slippers and even gloves to protect your hands. The perfect outfit to fully enjoy the activity. Only one thing to take with you: shoes! and we prefer them to have good grip to avoid slipping as much as possible. Good equipment, sequences of jumps, slides and abseils, a well-paced program to warm up everyone, even the most chilly.
