Aiglun
Waterfalls, slides and an impressive drop!
A marvellous compromise between aesthetics and fun, it's also a particularly deep canyon in an imposing setting. The emerald colour of the water makes this canyon superb. Riolan but more invigorating. We also do the Aiglun canyon without any shuttle or approach walk by swimming and climbing up it. It's one of the most difficult (and popular) outings we offer on the Aiglun freeride.

Before choosing Aiglun
Aiglun is aimed at people who want a real canyoning trip, both aesthetic and sporting, without turning it into an extreme day out. You'll need to know how to swim, be keen to get moving and be prepared for a series of watery sections in a deep canyon.
What makes this route so interesting
The canyon offers a fine balance between waterfalls, slides, possible jumps and long swimming zones between the walls. The atmosphere is very Verdon: rock, clear water, verticality and varied progression from start to finish.
Advice and guidance
Bring plenty of energy and closed shoes that fit properly. Jumps are never compulsory: the guide explains the options and adapts the progression to the actual level of the group.
