Fancy a breathtaking adventure on Reunion Island? Then don't miss the Fleur Jaune Canyon and its many abseils!

If you have ever looked into canyoning in Reunion Island, you will undoubtedly have come across the Fleur Jaune Canyon. It is one of the island's best-known canyons, not only for its exceptional series of abseils but also for its superb setting in the heart of the Cirque de Cilaos! The classic descent is made up of 7 abseils, one of which is 55 metres high and offers a breathtaking view of the Piton des Neiges and the Cirque de Cilaos, a must for all lovers of outdoor adventure.

More than just a canyon, the Fleur Jaune Canyon is also renowned for its return walk up the entire canyon, ending on a roped-off ridge where you will feel like a mountaineer. It is not for nothing that this experience is only accessible to 14-year-olds and over, provided you can swim and are not afraid of heights! Of course, you will be accompanied throughout the adventure by a state-qualified instructor who will provide you with all the necessary equipment (neoprene wetsuit, helmet, harness, etc.), ensuring your complete safety during the 4-hour descent of the Fleur Jaune Canyon that awaits you.

So if you are not afraid of heights and are looking for a thrilling outing in the Cirque de Cilaos, don't miss the Fleur Jaune Canyon, one of Reunion Island's most famous!
