Canyon du Llech, Slot canyon in Estoher, France
The Canyon du Llech features a sequence of 21 waterfalls with natural rock slides and pools carved by water erosion in the Pyrenees Mountains.
The canyon formation occurred over millions of years through water erosion processes, creating deep limestone gorges in the Canigou mountain range.
Local guides lead canyoning expeditions through the gorge, teaching participants about water flow patterns and regional geological formations specific to the Pyrenees.
The complete canyon exploration requires 6 hours, including a 45-minute approach hike, 4 hours of water activities, and a return walk to base camp.
The canyon contains specific features named by locals, such as the washing machine water slide and multiple cascades reaching heights of 15 meters.
