Neste de Saux

verified Ungraded Unknown flood risk Aragnouet, Hautes-Pyrenees

Neste de Saux runs as two distinct gorges joined by an open stretch, schist walled, rated a5 for water, the highest aquatic grade in this batch.

Flow holds up even in summer according to the beta on file, fed by a dam upstream, so check the release schedule before committing: this reads as a canyon where water level matters more than season. Permit status is unverified; the generic 'required, verify with land manager' note on file is a placeholder, not a researched rule.
