An expedition to the Canyon d’Estat

The Estat canyon, quite an adventure!

The canyon d’Estat is the most beautiful and largest in the Vicdessos valley. Over the course of a day, the expedition takes place at the foot of the 3000 Arièges. The already sporty approach walk takes us below the Pic d’Estat, 3144 meters above sea level all the same. A beautiful hike to start the day as an introduction before starting the descent itself. Opposite the Pic Rouge de Bassiès, overlooking the Artigue canyon, the Estat canyon is cut out of red schist between a high mountain landscape and abseiling.

Now this is a first in this summer of 2018, we are setting up an expedition! The late snowmelt offers us exceptional aquatic conditions for this unique adventure. This sporty descent requires a combination of endurance and technique. In this canyon, everyone has their role to play, everyone participates in the advancement of the group.

So if you are initiated in abseiling, if you want to deepen your knowledge of canyoning, if you have team spirit, if you want to escape, if at night you dream of canyoning in the high mountains, if you want to cool off, join the Estat team on Tuesday August 7, 2018!
