Grosdar Canyon

Summary

An aquatic hike for both children and adults with a 25m rappel at the end: the Donkey Tail rappel.

Presentation

The Grosdar river is located 5 minutes from Saint-Claude in the Jura. It's the most vertical canyon in the Jura massif in its upper section. For the half-day trip, we do the lower part, which is much less technical but much more playful.

It's a canyon that can be explored in a half-day for beginners or families wanting to discover this activity.

The lower part of the Grosdar canyon is a beautiful walk with your feet in the water, featuring numerous small, sometimes technical jumps as well as natural slides in a lush environment.
