How to choose

CanyoniCimes runs 4 canyoning options out of La Plagne-Tarentaise, from 55 € to 75 €, covering half-days to full days. Start with the Eau Rousse canyon if you're new to the sport: 4h, 55 €, flagged as "Occasionally sporty", it's the lowest-intensity entry point. The Bénétant canyon steps it up to a Sporty level in 5h for 65 €. For maximum commitment, the Ecot and Montmin canyons both run a full day at 75 € with a Sporty rating. Your decision comes down to one question: how much time and effort do you have? Pick Eau Rousse for a first taste, Bénétant to push harder without a full-day commitment, or either full-day option if you want the canyon to genuinely test you.

Frequently asked questions

What's the most intense canyon available from La Plagne?
Both the Ecot and Montmin canyons carry the highest physical rating (Sporty) and run a full day. They demand the most endurance and deliver the longest exposure to the canyon environment.
Do I need canyoning experience to book?
No. The Eau Rousse Discovery session is designed for beginners with no prior experience. The three Sporty-rated options are better suited to participants who are comfortable with physical effort and cold water.
How cold is the water in the canyons?
Glacier-fed rivers in the Tarentaise valley run cold, especially early in the season. Your guide will provide a wetsuit. Book the discovery session in July or August if water temperature is a concern.
What's the scariest moment in a typical session?
First rappel into the canyon. Standing at the edge of the first abseil with water rushing below is consistently what participants flag as the peak adrenaline moment before the session settles into a rhythm.
Are sessions available in English?
Yes. All four tours are led in both French and English.
When is the canyoning season open in La Plagne?
Sessions run from May through September. Water levels are highest and most powerful in May and June due to snowmelt. July and August offer warmer conditions and are the most popular months to book.
