From Frontenex, a suburb southwest of Albertville and directly on the A43, we drive to Raffort (Clery) to the Croix (cross) of Raffort, see https://www.google.de/maps/dir/45.6265754,6.3200684/45.640429,6.2821137/@45.6340055,6.2970168,2960m/data=!3m1!1e3?entry=ttu We park our car here.

See map sketch at http://via.ferrata.alpes.free.fr/images/Les%20canyons/Tailles/topo3.jpg Alternatively, access can be made via 2 spring creeks, the southern one having about twice as much water flow as the northern one and also being somewhat more attractive. We took the first, northern spring stream.

"From the base of the large final waterfall, continue for about twenty meters until you reach a tributary of the RD and arrive at a concrete ford. At this level, a left-hand path begins, which you follow for about forty meters until you find a fork. Take the path on the left that goes up along the cliff, leaving another path on the right. The path leads uphill in bends and near the ridge it turns right and goes downhill. We quickly reach a path that we take down to the parking lot" (translation of the text from http://via.ferrata.alpes.free.fr/html/Les%20canyons/Tailles.htm ) At the fork, we took the path on the right on the water pipe through the tunnel, as the door was open there.
