Access: machine translated ➜

From Castellane (on the Verdon above the Gorges du Verdon) on the D 4085 ("Route Napoleon") in the direction of Digne-les_Bains we drive in serpentines northwestward uphill. Over the Col de Leveque and past the hamlet of Taulann we reach after about 12 km the striking rock breakthrough at the entrance of the Clue de Taulanne.

Approach (2 min): machine translated ➜

Enter directly under the rock breakthrough of the road (left on the rock painted "CANYONING INTERDIT" - now quite faded). But is still forbidden: http://www.descente-canyon.com/canyoning/canyon-reglementation/2920/legislation.html

Tour (2 h 30): machine translated ➜

Attractive canyon: sunlit, as it faces south-north; one rumbly slide and 2-3 possible jumps (watch out pools look deeper than they are), nice ambiance (deep green pools; entire watercourse sintered).

Return (30 min): machine translated ➜

After the last waterfall ( the next after the highest rappel - C 25) left of the streambed, long pathless, finally then right on dirt road downhill to the car at the bridge.\nEs there is also the possibility to climb relatively soon after leaving the streambed right up in the direction of the campsite, but this ascent track is not quite easy to recognize as such (then, of course, the lower vehicle would have to be parked there).
