Canyoning at the Angon Waterfall – Discovery Route near Lake Annecy
Want to have an unforgettable outdoor adventure during your stay in Annecy? Canyoning at the famous Angon Waterfall, in the municipality of Talloires-Montmin, is the perfect thing to do to combine thrills, nature, and coolness.

Located just 20 minutes from the town centre of Annecy, this course is a must-see in the region, appreciated as much for its beauty as for its variety of natural obstacles. It's suitable for everyone: beginners, families, groups of friends, or those who prefer a more gentle experience. Open to those aged 8 and up, it's the perfect introduction to canyoning, guided by state-certified instructors who ensure your safety and enjoyment.

‍Course itinerary
After a safety briefing and gear distribution in the car park above the canyon, a short approach walk (20 minutes through the forest) leads you to the entry point into the canyon. You put on your wetsuit, helmet, and harness… and off you go for about 1 hour and 30 minutes of active descent in a wild and impressive setting.

The canyon begins with a series of small pools and slides naturally carved into the rock. The rest of the course alternates between rappelling and jumping (never mandatory, several escape routes are possible), swimming crossings, and fun slides. The pace is progressive, fun, and adapted to the skill level of the group. You'll move through a narrow gorge carved by water over the centuries, with a magical atmosphere among the rock walls, moss, and plays of light.
