FLEURS JAUNES

The Yellow Flowers canyon is one of the prettiest one day canyoneering adventures on Reunion Island.  It features beautiful polished basalt caverns and 60 meter rappels down mellow water cascades.

Here is an excerpt from our trip report:

Water goes through an unlikely gap in the Piton Sucre, then cascades more than 110 meters down a huge polished rock-face that is about 5 degrees off vertical. Getting through the gap involves 4 or 5 raps, then you rap down the waterfall for a full 60m into a clear hanging pool that spills over into another 35m drop.  Wow!

Here is the extended trip report from our  trip to Reunion Island in June 2002.
