Description
I invite you to share a beautiful half day exploring the gorges and cascades around Saint Claude. There are many locations to visit, for example gorges de l’Abime and cascade des Combes. But we can also go to the gorges du Flumen and the cascade Queue de Cheval.
These natural sites are veritable gems. Indeed, they make visitors very happy when they come to the area.
The streams with sometimes impressive flow have always been a first-class asset here. In fact, the hydraulic energy which they provide contribute a lot to the development of the many small industries in the massif.
During the spring and fall the waters are most abundant. Therefore they are the best moments to appreciate the tour.
Please note that you will need a car. During this hike we will cover 7km maximum, and 230m of positive altitude change.
Did you find this short hiking trip interesting? Then please contact me for more information! And if you have some more time in the area, I can take you on a guided hike in Saint Claude, to learn about the history of the area.

About the guide
I discovered the joy of the mountains at a very young age, and I knew that my place was there, in the Jura, the Alps, or elsewhere, but in a place where raised terrain allows to go high...
My experience in the Mountain Troops and the Gendarmerie, together with a regular practice of different mountain sports, allowed me to gain knowledge and know-how that enriched my mountain leader training.
In 2012 I got certified as State Mountain Leader (AEM), which allowed me to start fully living my passion for the mountain, and sharing it with you.
I propose to share very varied activities: walking ,hiking, trekking, snowshoeing. It allows me to enjoy precious moments in nature with you.
To complement my leader training, I discovered trail running 8 years ago, a more sportif and intense way to discover the mountain, always respecting the environment.
I can also offer you my expertise in Morocco, where I have been going often during these last years. My knowledge of the field and of the local correspondants allows me to propose magnificent journeys to you!
From the Jura to the Alps, not forgetting Pyrenees, Corsica and Morocco, my approach to the mountain has always been guided by the search of pleasure and the comprehension of the environment.
