The instructor cannot be held responsible for theft, loss or damage to your own equipment.

DESCRIPTION

This is a spring canyon which is done around April, May, June ; after this period the Imberguet is usually dry. The session lasts a short day but it is complete with all the ingredients for a great canyon adventure : great jumps, nice slides and abseils ! After a very short walk, a few jumps and descents, the river enters a grandiose gorge with superb hanging basins. A very vertical section follows with a succession of three abseils of 9, 11 and 21m. The final section is just as aerial but with smaller abseils. This course is predominantly vertical with the ten or so compulsory abseils. A total change of scenery guaranteed !

Meeting point

The meeting place is at the “Parking du pont Durandy” in the commune of Le Plan du Var 06670. When you leave the town of Plan du Var in the direction of Lantosque, drive 200m, the car park is located just after the bridge over the Vésubie, on the right at the roundabout between the M6202 and the Route de la Vésubie M2565.
