Description

Join me for an exhilarating half-day on the Jardin d'Endieu via corda in Ardèche.

During this adventure, which combines climbing and mountain walking, you will discover spectacular scenery above the river Chassezac. You will negotiate obstacles clinging to a lifeline and perfectly secured in your harness. The descent will be a thrilling experience as you abseil 40 meters down a spider's thread (no contact with the rock).

I will also give you tips on how to improve your technique and make the most of this exceptional adventure.

The trip is open to anyone in good physical condition (no experience required) and with no medical contraindications to climbing. You must be at least 12 years old, over 1m40 tall and weigh less than 120kg.
Please contact me if you have any medical problems.

The schedule is subject to change at the last minute, depending on weather conditions, the number of people registered, etc.

If you fancy a refreshing water experience nearby, I also offer canyoning in the Haute Borne gorges in Ardèche or in the Haut Chassezac gorges in the Cévennes.
