Canyoning in the Lance<\/h3><\/div>
The Lance canyon is a wild canyon set in an alpine landscape, on the edge of Mercantour Park. The descent begins at an altitude of nearly 1600m, in the heart of a larch forest. The start of the route is predominantly aquatic, featuring jumps into large pools and slides. Subsequently, the canyon's verticality necessitates abseiling, sometimes under waterfalls, interspersed with progress through the water. A large sun-drenched slab will welcome you for a picnic break, above a pool where it is tempting to jump (and jump again). The canyon then narrows into a gorge of waterfalls, navigated by abseiling and jumps (up to 12m), before reaching the great Lance waterfall, the end point of the descent. A short 15-minute walk will bring us back to the vehicles left in the morning.<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
