Tips if you are going to do Canyoning in France

An activity that lies halfway between water and mountain sports, canyoning is the outdoor discipline par excellence! It became more and more widespread towards the end of the 20th century, making France an attractive country on an international level, given the facilities and equipment invested in this practice. Canyoning tourism has thus become a dynamic sector in France, given the magnificent landscapes and canyons that the hexagon harbours. Read on to discover five reasons that will make you want to go canyoning in France.
1. Different levels of difficulty, suitable for everyone!

Canyoning is for everyone, with the only condition being that you are comfortable in the water and can swim. It can be practised by anyone, generally from the age of 7, and the discipline, whose practice depends on the canyons, includes different difficulty levels. From level 1 (very easy) to level 7 (expert), there are numerous possibilities, as much for novices as for athletes. Canyoning has become increasingly popular in France due to the variety of courses and activities available. Did you know that a canyoning trip includes jumps, slides, abseiling and water fights? All this in 1! We imagine that this will surely give you some ideas to plan an activity with friends! Read on to know more...
2. The perfect group activity

A boat trip or half-day rafting trips are not the only activities you can do with a group. Canyoning is as much about discovering beautiful landscapes as it is about getting to know your teammates, friends, family or work colleagues. And because of the fun nature of the activity, you can be sure that there will be no lack of competitiveness. Sharing unique moments with your children and introducing them to an outdoor sport will undoubtedly boost their confidence. Getting a taste for adrenaline and thrills will bring discipline to your little one's life and to yours too! With friends or work colleagues, the fun factor is ever-present. In a different environment, you will discover each other from a different perspective. This will bring you closer together and create an atmosphere for friendly competition, a refreshing change from your daily schedule.
3. Guaranteed thrills and fun

With all the activities involved in a canyoning trip, we can guarantee that what you'll experience will be like a fun rollercoaster. Between the jumps, slides and rappelling, you will barely have the time to recover from any activity before immersing yourself in another thrilling challenge. However, you will feel refreshed when the water touches your skin, and the laughter will only help you feel more relaxed. Canyoning will allow you to get even closer to your guides, to meet new people if you are integrated with a new group. Canyoning will bring out your most adventurous side, between breathtaking fauna and flora!
4. An effective way to relieve your daily stress

The physical exertion combined with the view of the breath-taking scenery that surrounds and borders the canyons will help you escape from your daily life during the activity. This activity is a great way to stay focused, be entertained, instil a sense of well-being that will relax you and take the pressure off. Moreover, it is scientifically proven that the physical effort involved in a sports session releases the feel-good hormones, namely endorphins. You will feel completely relaxed and de-stressed in the impressive gorges and mountains around you. You may even have a better quality of sleep after a day of canyoning. Isn't this a good way to combine business and pleasure?
5. Being at one with nature

As mentioned in this article, France is one of the most popular countries for canyoning due to the magnificent gorges that make it so charming. And how can we talk about canyoning without mentioning the famous Gorges du Verdon (Canyoning Verdon Gorge), the most breathtaking canyon in Europe! You will plunge into the splendour of its waterways and blend in with nature... For the French overseas departments and territories, Corsica is an ideal destination for canyoning! It is home to various exceptional canyons such as the Richiusa, the Verghellu, the Dardu and the Bracci.
When should I go canyoning in France?

Don't wait for a particular occasion to do canyoning. Usually, the activity is done in the summer season (spring/summer). However, there are also hot canyons designed for canyoning activities in winter, which you can also participate in. The only requirements are swimming skills, good physical condition, and fingers crossed that the water releases do not coincide with your schedule.
