Introduction to canyoning for the pupils of Basse Pointe middle school.

A beautiful sunny day, and full of emotions for our young adventurers, accompanied by their teachers, on the TropiCanyon introduction sites Saut Gendarme in Fond St Denis.

Two teams are formed to cross the last four obstacles of the canyon.

It starts with an equipment session with neoprene suit, helmet, and harness.

Then a forest path enables to discover the tropical atmosphere of the day.
