Approach: From the parking lot no longer continue on the slope as before, but on a signposted path to the entry (2017), where from the right the rocky slope reaches completely to the stream.
Tour: The stream has eaten into sloping rock slabs, so that there is an almost cave-like atmosphere, where you can sometimes only walk bent over. 2 fun slides and possible jumps (among others after the pool of the 2nd slide on a fixed rope back up to the rock bar; the 12 m jump is already outside the constriction) make the mini-canyon attractive.

Access: From Castellane on the Verdon approx. 10 km on the N 85 in a south-easterly direction to Batie (de Peyroules). Or here from Grasse on the N 85 in 45 km. Here, turn off the N 85 in a south-westerly direction and after about 1 km you will come to a no-entry sign on a dirt road. Park here. Since 2006, access has only been possible up to this designated parking lot.
Return: After the canyon opens, get off to the right at a large pool, meet a path here that goes up the rocky slope and leads us to the approach path that we walk back to the car.

Comment: nach dem Tunnel durch die Öffnung im Geländer
Approach: From the bridge on the road first past the parking areas for hikers, climbers and fishermen at the site and left of the Esteron the road award.... Shortly after the tunnel at the break in the railing down to the right into the river.
Tour: Although you can see large parts of the canyon from the road, it is a very sporty hike that is not recommended for beginners. In some places, the abundance of water leads to backwaters and backwaters. The highest waterfall (a few meters after crossing under a rope bridge made of 2 steel ropes) should not be rappelled at more than 500 litres/sec, although you can rappel through it and come to a halt behind the waterfall. A (not easy) switch from the right to the left side of the gorge is recommended here, as well as a traverse to the left around an edge and with several intermediate hooks and a tree to a sloping slab from which you can jump. A rope ferry is also possible here and is used by commercial guides. Incidentally, they only use the rope twice for the rappel.

Access: From the valley of the Estéron we take the D 2211 direction St. Auban. Already before the village we park a car at the Maison des Services au Public de Saint-Auban. If we have a second car, we continue downhill along the left canyon rim and after a few switchbacks we reach a bridge over a side stream of the Estéron. A few meters later, we can park the second car in the open space on the left.
Return: Where the canyon widens considerably and a side stream flows in from the left, follow the clear footprints to the left into the valley of the side stream and across a forest road to the parking exit.

Approach: From the parking lot, walk a few more meters towards the village and then take the first dirt road to the right (marked "75"). Via "75a" you reach a ridge that offers a view of the entrance to the Aiglun gorge. You come to an information board. At the "75b" marker, turn right off the hiking trail onto a path and head southwest down to the stream. If you only have one vehicle, you can reach the entry from the village of Aiglun on a mountain path over the ridge of Mont St Martin (1257 m), see also wikiloc link.
Tour: With a catchment area of 170 square kilometers, the attractive canyon with its narrow wood-blocked passages is life-threatening when the water swells. Similar to the neighboring Riolan, the water is regularly cloudy, so that the few climbing options must be sounded out beforehand. In some places, fixed ropes are used across and above the chute to avoid the arduous and sometimes difficult climbing over the blocked wood in the chute.

Approach: Straight down to the creek.
Tour: 1st part partly in the basement, no rappel at normal water level. With a lot of water 5 rappels. Exits with the arched bridge. Then running section. 2nd part increasingly narrower as it progresses. No too high rappels. Some slides and possible jumps after prior inspection. The water is mostly naturally cloudy due to the suspended mud.

Approach: Follow the road to its exit and follow the marked path at an information board (marker "130"). The newly renovated footpath first leads southeast along the slope, later winding up through the forest to a prominent shoulder where the view opens up to the east. Shortly after this point, turn right off the previous path on a path and cross slightly downwards to the streambed of the Peira.
Tour: Attractive rappel canyon when water is flowing (visible at the road bridge, where you can also see the last high rappel); scenic access. Initially just a forest gorge with small slides and rappels before you reach the first high step. Right via hand ropes to the actual anchor on the right of the edge (50m, exposed). After three low rappels, one of which is jumpable, you are in front of the second high rappel, which is the key point of the tour. Either descend 60m in one or rappel about 15-20m to a hidden belay below the uppermost sinter terrace, the tempting-looking belay above can only be reached via a windy root deviation. Then rappel 45-40m from the intermediate belay to the pool below the waterfall. Beautiful passages with some possible jumps then lead to the last high waterfall. Either rappel 60m in one rappel or abseil 15m+45m from a hidden but comfortable intermediate belay on the left.

Approach: Follow the road briefly out of the valley and change to a sand road at the information sign. Follow the road until just before its exit and turn right at the signs onto a good path. Descend via many hairpin bends until a path branches off to the right just before reaching the streambed. Follow this path to the entry point at a large basin. You can also do the tour with just one car. Then park the car in La Giandola near the bridge and hike up the beautiful wall above the canyon - takes about 80 minutes.
Tour: Of the 20 or so places, you can slide and/or jump at least 15. It is better to go at inopportune times, as there are many groups (the first groups usually appear just after 9:00). At the key point, the rappel into the cave, you can climb up to the right and rappel through a hole or even at the exit of the canopy. Good overtaking possibility. About 100m later, there is an exit on the right up to the road. Two traverses are set up as via ferrata.

Comment: Ponte Cin
Approach: Cross the stream and on the other side of the village follow the signs to a mule track ("Sentiero 13"). Follow the path for 35 minutes to a signposted junction and take the lower path. You soon cross the landslide zone with two large rock debris below the path and then reach the entry point at the Ponte Cin bridge. Fee for ascent - 2023 collection hut was not yet occupied at 08.45 h.
Tour: Entry is at the bridge over the stream. Here you can jump directly to 8.6m (descente). In the following, jumps up to 12m and small, well-equipped rappels up to 10m alternate. In the lower third there are wonderful tuff formations similar to the Maglia. After a rappel between huge boulders, the canyon opens up. The last point is the jump from the dam wall. Bathers are often to be found here. Watch out! There is a place (picture 12 shows it from below) that is often used by commercial operators to build ropeways. There is a VERY well-equipped belaystation on the left which is only moderately suitable for rappels as the rope tends to get stuck in a crevice here. If you are rappelling, then rather orog. right a little further ahead. You can jump at this point, but it is essential to check out the spot carefully. The pool looks much deeper from above than it is and is full of large stones. The water level can best be assessed at the entry. There are no obvious canyons in the critical part of the canyon. The "signposted" emergency exits described by descente are non-existent. In some places, the slope can certainly be climbed with difficulty on the left. There are plenty of places to get out of the water.

Approach: Continue along the road, which is no longer paved, to the marker "143", where a path branches off to the left, which we follow. We walk - at least temporarily - along a dried-up water pipe, cross a stream and finally reach the bridge over the Figaret. We will get off here later. Now we climb steeply uphill, past the ruins of a mountain farm, until we reach the mountain shoulder at an altitude of 1030 m above sea level. Here we leave the path that continues to the right and descend on the other side to the streambed of the Bagnolar. On the opposite slope you can see a house in the hamlet of Les Barmes.
Tour: Start in a small forest canyon, with the successive deepening the rappels also become higher. Some jumps possible. The Bagnolar is an attractive canyon, but only when water is flowing through it. As early as May, there is often only standing water in the pools in the lower part. In midsummer, a nose clip should be part of your equipment. In good conditions, however, the Bagnolar is one of the best canyons in the area. Narrow, wonderfully washed out and with beautifully shaped rappels and fun jumps and slides. You have the option of exiting to the left at about halfway down the canyon to join the ascent route. Unfortunately, it is forbidden to walk down the attractive Figaret.

Approach: From the car, follow the path to the right over the tinée. After approx. 150m, a path goes uphill on the left-hand side. Do NOT turn off at approx. 970m, but continue uphill on the path until you reach a gravel road. Follow the track to the right until the road crosses the stream (approx. 1110 m).
Tour: Sequence of rappels and downclimbs, up to the c90 highlight. Be careful, the rock is very slippery. The canyon is very incised and there are no emergency exits.

Approach: Now we continue walking on the only minimally ascending slope, first in the forest, later with beautiful views of the mountains around the Vallée du Cians. We come to the houses of L'Illion (1580 m a.s.l. - 45 min. to here) situated on the southern slope. From here it is a good kilometer until the track describes a long right curve. On the left there is a large almost flat area. Here, following the cairns, descend in a southwesterly direction to the stream.
Tour: The canyon with its 35 rappel is beautiful, but the effort (shuttle, long access, long descent in the canyon) but quite large. Jumps are possible because of the murky water only after respective pre-test.

Access: From Nice 54 km up the Var valley on the N 202 towards Digne. Then turn right (north) onto the D 28 into the Vallée de Cians. First through the Gorges de Cians, it later goes in serpentines into the upper canyon. About 17 km after the turnoff, one passes through two tunnels at the "Petite-" and the "Grande Clue". In front of a red wall with inscription plates (behind it a drinking water tank) the road crosses the Raton. Here we park one vehicle.\nWith the other (or a cab) we continue, up to Beuil and from there on the D 28 in the direction of Valberg. A few hundred meters after Les Launes we turn left and go down on the little road in the valley. We come to a new ski station (on the righthand side) and continue on the now no longer paved forest road in a southerly direction, as far as the road is drivable (in 2008, driving was already over in the first water-bearing ditch after the ski station).
Return: At the road bridge, climb the pipe ladder on the left.

Approach: Follow the trail ("Sentier Amen") that goes up the slope in a southerly direction, passing the entry to Vallon de Tireboeuf. On panoramic paths you go up above the canyon of Daluis, passing the hamlet of Bancheron. At marker "112", do not go left up to the summit of the Amen, but stay on the previous path and take marker "115" to reach the bridge at 1060 m above sea level. Here is the entry.
Tour: The canyon is particularly attractive because of the final waterfalls and the narrow section in front of them, but is also worthwhile as a "complete package". The alternative is to access the canyon from the parking lot of the first vehicle down to the Var and then up the scree slope to the saddle on the other side in order to walk only the attractive final section - cascades finales (https://www.descente-canyon.com/canyoning/canyon/2480). You can also get off at this saddle before the final section if you walk the entire canyon (signpost). The red rock is very smooth in the water area. The siphon in the narrow section at the exit of the canyon can be avoided by overclimbing, but can also be dived through without any problems.

Approach: Return on the D2565 over the Vesubie and 200 m further on, at signpost no. 127, turn left up into the Vallon de l'Infernet. The path climbs 250 meters in altitude, then runs horizontally on the wooded slope above the canyon into the valley. After about 40 minutes (10 minutes after the start of the horizontal part of the trail), you come to a path junction on the left downhill (signpost for entry). Here we descend to l'Infernet.
Tour: After an open river section, you come to the gorge with small jumps or rappels. The highlight is a 12m slide, which can be climbed again on a fixed rope.

Approach: First continue along the road towards Kunkelspass. After approx. 500m, a forest road branches off to the left. Follow this forest road until a hiking trail continues at its exit. Follow this hiking trail to the canyon.
Tour: The Alpine Canyon initially has rather low rappels. In the mostly open terrain, there are nevertheless some narrower rappels that go right through the middle of the water jet and give the canyon a sporty flair. From the halfway point, the rappels get higher. At the penultimate high rappel, there is an intermediate belay on the orographic right-hand side, directly on the edge of the overhang. The last high waterfall is rappelled in three stages. First it goes down about 10 meters. The second anchor is orographic on the right. If you look down from this anchor, the next intermediate belay is behind the plateau on the orographic right, directly on the edge, approx. 45 m below. From there another 40 m in depth.
