Activity description
The canyon of Thuès Les Bains is fed by natural hot springs allowing you to practice canyoning in winter!
This hot spring canyon in the Eastern Pyrenees is to do preferably when there is snow and that you want to walk in the steaming water.
You will discover the joys of canyoning combining swimming in basins of water at 40°C, walking, jumping and sliding in natural toboggans. Enjoy the warmth of the water in an enchanting setting, surrounded by snow-covered trees!
You will meet at Thuès-entre-Valls (the exact location will be specified after booking) with your canyoning instructor. After being equipped and given the safety instructions, you head for a 20-minute approach walk.
