Introduction

A few small pools leading up to the 40-meter drop (C40). After a chute and a jump, and 200 meters of chaotic boulders—best avoided by keeping to the right bank—you finally reach the start of Audin. It is recommended to continue into Audin (lower)

Approach

Follow the route to Lower Audin (lower), but continue along the path, cross a stream, and reach the Audin stream at an altitude of around 550 m (approximately 35 minutes from the start of the Audin Inférieur access path).

Descent

A few small pools leading up to the 40-meter drop (C40). After a chute and a jump, and 200 meters of chaotic boulders—best avoided by keeping to the right bank—you finally reach the start of Audin (lower).

Exit

It is recommended to continue into Audin (lower) or go off the path for the starting point of Audin (lower)
