DESCRIPTION
This session starts at the foot of the beautiful and impressive Bès de Courmes waterfall, a dizzying 65m waterfall that we will just watch. As an aperitif we offer an introduction to abseiling in the smaller waterfalls below. This is followed by an all-you-can-eat buffet of jumps and slides ! And for dessert there is a magnificent final drop where the more daring can try their hand at some of the crazier jumps ! All the obstacles are nevertheless easily bypassed by walking on the banks of the river. The setting is sumptuous, the water is crystal clear, a perfect aqualand ! The only drawback is that it is crowded in high season, parking spaces are scarce and you have to zigzag between the bathers’ towels… For more peace and quiet, the Gours du Ray, which is 15 minutes further upstream, is a very good alternative.
