We had a fantastic time until we reached the 9m (29.5ft) platform, where my 19 year old son performed a perfect pencil jump as instructed. The force of hitting the water resulted in him fracturing his spine in two places. I am sure that this is not a common occurrence but it is worth considering the risks especially before performing the higher jumps e.g. above 5m. Our son was incapacitated for 3 months and had to wear a brace for most of the summer. He has now, thankfully, made a full recovery; the consultant said he was lucky as a couple more millimetres on the fracture would have been life changing.We also had an issue with our travel insurance (Nationwide) who abandoned us in France with our son in hospital and left us with no option but to organise repatriation ourselves. On appeal in the UK they eventually paid up; the policy had a canyoning exclusion and they initially argued that due to the park’s theme and name we were not covered. I would recommend anyone visiting the park to check their cover includes this activity before participating (preferably in writing). The park itself does have insurance but after taking legal advice we were told we were unlikely to be able to claim under French law, as you take part ‘at your own risk’, something that was not explained to us until after the accident.I am sure that this is much safer than ‘real’ canyoning and we have just have been very unlucky. As the park was man made, advertised as totally secure and supervised we did not think to make the same risk analyses that would have been normal had we chosen to do this in the wild.The staff were very helpful and lent us a car to follow the ambulance to the hospital.Please note the accident occurred in June 2013 but we were not able to update Trip Advisor while legal and insurance proceedings were continuing, hence the late post.

This looks very average from the outside and the idea of artificial canyoning when there are real mountains to visit meant we arrived with relatively low expectations. And it was raining when we arrived. But it's actually ideal for a family - and France has a great attitude to H&S - if a 9 yr old can swim strongly and isn't afraid of heights they can participate fully...great fun and the first tandem Ariel runway we have found

Our party of 7 (4 kids and 3 adults) had a wonderful time! Very professional coaching by the supervisors, nice equipment, a lot of fun. Thank you to our moniteur, I believe his name was Christian ? Very nice people at the reception, a lot of fun to talk with.

great fun! felt it was safe with a good number of supervisors. not all had good English though. this is definitely not for the faint hearted and a level of fitness is required for the climbing. wouldn't advise for anyone one who is not a fairly competent swimmer

Eddie did this and was the oldest person in the group. He was very brave and only missed out a couple of the highest jumps (9 meter jump and 9 meter slide). Not cheap indeed but very good value. The French attitude to health and safety is different from the British one: it was just assumed that everyone could swim, whereas in Britain they probably would have to sign a form just to absolve the owners of any responsibility in case of accident. A lovely park with lots of choice of adventures for all ages. Joshua did the "Parcours Ouistiti" for little ones and it was very safe.

my two teenagers (15 & 13) and my big kid of a husband absolutely loved this afternoon out. Not cheap ( 93 euro for 3) but fantastic value for money. Very well organised. Not for anyone unfit or scared of heights - even my normally brave 13 year old found some of the jumps too scary.There are no shortcuts if you don't like it - you just have to climb back down but there were a few who didn't do all of the jumps. If water isn't your thing then the aerial adventure park on the same site looked lovely and it looked as though you could clip in and out when and where you wanted so you could take it at your own pace, whereas the canyoning park was a defined slot with a group of about 10. Very well supervised.It took about 90 minutes in totalThe jumps and whole activity was thrilling. I had a prime position in a lovely shaded viewing gallery which was perfect for taking shots of the group and the cafe served snacks,icecreams and drinks at a reasonable price-it was about 6 euro for a sandwich and a drink. I would advise booking early as there were limited slots available. Easy to find just head for Luna ParkAll in all much more fun than a standard water park

Great day out for the kids, guided adventure lasts about 1hr and 1/2. Quite expensive but they all said best day of the holiday. Not one for a fear of heights, but very safe.

Great fun and pretty authentic, but there are cheats, should any of the younger ones not fancy some of the higher jumps. Pre-book to avoid disappointment

This was great fun but you need to be quite fit to complete the outing

We were a group of 8 - my husband and I my 16 year old daughter and two friends and my 21 year old daughter and her boyfriend. I suggested this trip but as I don't like heights I'm not quite sure why I did this! The kids & my husband loved it - I am afraid I ducked out after my first jump.The park has been really cleverly made - we all had safety hats, wet suits and shoes (I should have guessed at this point it was probably not for me!). You climp up the rocks (very safe and then either jump or slide into the pool (depending on the pool). I won't go into too much detail but there is a hidden suprise. The kids & the very large kid (aka Hubby) loved it and would definately go again. I will also re-visit and take photos! There is a great zip wire at the end.All in all a very different activity that you would not find in the UK

I am a fifty one year old mother of three and my twin 13 year old boys really wanted to do this, as my partner is not very good with heights he declined and therefore I rose to the challenge. It is quite demanding physically so you do need to have reasonable level of fitness especially when climbing the rocks, ladders and constantly getting in and out of the water. The jumps range from around 5 meters to 9 meters and although we were a little apprehensive at first we soon got into the swing of things and were eager to take steps to the next level. The hardest thing for me was the ab-sailing having never done it before, let alone with water pouring down on top of me, I wasn't sure what to expect. It was simple enough but had I known that there was yet another plunge pool waiting for me I would have been a little more confident edging my way down. The instructions for this aspect could have been clearer however all in all we had an excellent time and ended the holiday on a high (jump). We also played the mini golf and thoroughly enjoyed that too especially as I won!!

I foolishly imagined this might be a rather nice 'family activity' - what was I thinking !!??Your first hurdle is squeezing into the wet suits provided in the mixed-sex changing rooms - just when you think you couldn't look any sillier, they also add a hard hat, wet suit slippers and a harness. However as the course is a cold water one, later you will be very glad that comfort triumphs over style here.Understandably (we are in France after all) there is minimal instruction in english, but it is fairly self explanitary what you have to do at each stage, and the guides that take you around the course are friendly enough. Basically there are 4 elements :- jumping off very realistic looking cliffs at the height of around 5 metres into very deep cold water plunge pools. Warning there are higher ones than this - though the much higher ones are strictly optional ! - sliding into plunge pools down artifical waterfalls - which is slightly better, as you can't see what's coming next ! ....ie. 'the drop' as the cliff face drops off ! There is even one into an underground cavern - a black hole (though it is well lit once inside).- abseiling down artificial rock faces with water pouring down on you.- a final 200m zip wire across from the artifical rock face, to another pool at the end of the course.You should be warned that this is a fairly physically demanding activity as mostly you have to part-pull yourself by rope, and part scramble, up the slopes to the next activity, after dropping down the last...a week later and I am still feeling the aches and pains, and wishing I had kept up that gym routine ! You will need good upper arm strength, and not be carrying too much weight, to do the zip wiring at the end, as you will have to carry your body weight on your hands/arms - the strain is not taken by the harness (though it is attached for safety), as it normally is at many zip wire activity centres.I do have some health and safety concerns - not so much about the actual jumps and falls but their (occasional) use of vertical steel ladders beween some of activities. These were very high with minimal, to no, safety barriers - climbing high steel ladders with wet hands, wet feet and a wet suit, is surely an accident waiting to happen ?It does say it is recommended from 8 years up but my daughter who is a plucky 10 year old was too daunted to do most of the jumps...it would have been alot better if they had different jump levels to suit all nerotic states.ie for whimps, semi whimps, almost brave and the brave + etc. Even my 14 year boy, who generally enjoyed it, was hesitant at times and did not do all the challenges. If you are wondering if it is going to be suitable for you and your party, you can go and view the course from a viewing platform inside the centre - I don't think there is any charge to do this and you might be wise to do so, as at around £100 for a family of 2 adults /2 children, you might save yourself some unnecessary expenditure.To be honest if you are NOT a thrill seeker,and/or don't enjoy the scary rides at the fair, etc, then stick to the excellent mini golf next door, as you are more likely to endure this, to enjoy it ! However, I'm sure this is quite unique activity is a must for all young twenty somethings and/or those who like to feel their heart beating in their chest once in a while !

Le parc est très bien étudié pour pourvoir prendre de bonnes montées d'adrénaline en toute sécurité. Les gopro sont acceptées, ce qui est rare dans le business du tourisme. Le seule point négatif était l'impatience d'un jeune moniteur, pas trop pédagogue. Bref, une activité à faire sur le coin d'Argeles !!!

Nous sommes partis entre amis faire du canyoning à argeles deux de nos amis on adorés l'expérience.Il ne faut pas trop réfléchir et sauter, C'est assez impressionnant !L'un des deux moniteur ( le plus âgé) est excellent et très pédagogue. Mais le jeune est horrible ex: vous commencer un rappel et vous paniquer et bien il décroche la corde et plouf dans l'eau, une chute de quatre mètre à votre insu ! C'est un très mauvais moniteur, et machiste à la fois!Si vous ne s'avez pas nager et que vous aillez le vertige : oublié. L'expérience c'est satisfait ou non remboursé, dommage lorsque vous avez fait un seul saut! Pas d'avoir ni de proposition pour l'accro-branche en échange.Soit c'est le kiff total ou la déception.
