Home & Equipment

A human experience from the moment you arrive

We welcome you in the friendly garden of our training course center, over coffee and a snack, to get to know each other in a simple way.

On site, you will enjoy all the necessary comfort :
🅿️ Large parking lot – 🚻 Restrooms – 🧊 Fridge – 📶 Wifi – 🏡 Partnerships with local hosts – 🧑‍🏫 Classroom for training


We provide you with complete, professional and suitable equipment!

Before leaving, we present the activity, our educational approach, and the materials used.
You receive equipment that is fully adapted to your body shape and carefully prepared.

        💦 Canyoning equipment 🌿
> Non-slip pro shoes + neoprene socks
> 2-piece neoprene wetsuits (5 mm) + lycra or neoprene top (2 mm) if necessary
> CE EN 12492 mountain standard helmet
> Canyon harness with double lanyard and descender
> Waterproof bag and container (if necessary depending on the canyon)

         🐾 Caving equipment 🦇
> Caving boots or canyon shoes + neoprene socks
> Nylon one-piece suit
> CE EN 12492 mountain standard helmet with LED or acetylene lighting
> Caving harness, double lanyard, bag

🧼 All equipment is disinfected after each outing (CEE standard No. 67). PPE equipment is systematically checked and recorded in a register. 🧐


Reassuring and personalized teaching

Our groups are limited to 8 people maximum per instructor (except for pre-formed groups of 9; 4 to 6 for technical outings) to ensure high-quality supervision. Each outing begins with a comprehensive briefing to reassure you and gradually make you autonomous. 👍🏽

Thanks to the expertise of our U.C.A.-certified instructors, trained in applied psychology and pedagogy, you will learn at your own pace, with joy and confidence. 😇


🤝 Feedback & exchange: an important moment! 🍻

Back to the center, we offer you a snack and refreshment to share your feelings, ask all your questions and consider, together, the next steps of the adventure.

Sharing a passion can't be improvised... and certainly not in 5 minutes on the side of a parking lot!
