The experience
The Angon Canyon drops you into one of Haute-Savoie's signature canyons, starting with a short walk through forest before the descent begins. You'll abseil down waterfalls reaching 40 meters, jump into pools, and slide through rock chutes: all with Lake Annecy visible above. The guide explains the route and equipment setup at the start, then leads you through jumps and abseiling in the first half, where the water is cold and clean and the canyon walls frame the lake. The second half loosens up with slides and surprises, turning the technical work into something closer to play.
The canyon is dotted with aquatic passages and reminders: natural features that break up the descent and keep the rhythm changing. You're moving through water the whole time, so expect to be wet and to swim short sections. The guide handles the rigging and safety checks. You handle the jumps and the slides. At the end, you walk straight to the car, change out of your gear, and the group finishes together with a beer.
