Challenging Canyoning, Chamonix / Mont Blanc Valley

Full day excursion for those looking for more challenging canyons

featured in Watersports

An exhillerating mountain water experience travelling down rivers or streams within a canyon by a variety of means including walking, scrambling, climbing, abseiling and swimming.

On this full day trip, you will get to experience some of the more challenging canyons which are located just through the Mont Blanc tunnel in Italy.

You will need your own vehicle as one needs to be left at the bottom of the canyon and one at the top.

Canyoning is generally only available in the mountains, where steep valleys and rushing mountain streams lead to the formation of canyons.

Typically what separates a canyon from any ordinary stream is the narrow passage created by erosion into bedrock, creating beautiful sculptured walls and spectacular waterfalls. There are water chutes and pools to jump in, and you will get very wet abseiling down waterfalls!
