Where we go

Three spots
under Mont Blanc

Chamonix

Families, beginners, sporty

Half an hour from Chamonix Mont-Blanc, two rivers ideal for a first canyoning trip with children: abseils along the waterfalls, natural slides carved by white water, jumps into pools and the famous OXO zip line, the "tyro-splash".

Saint-Gervais

From age 7 to sporty

Twenty minutes away, the Balme torrent offers a family descent with slides, jumps and abseils, and a sporty version for teenagers and adults. Close to Passy lake for a picnic.

Megève

One of Haute-Savoie's finest

Just above Megève, at Mont d'Arbois, the Belle au Bois canyon lines up abseils, jumps and slides in beautiful gorges. No experience needed, but you need to be fit.
