Senez, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence
Gorges de Taulanne near Senez carries real numbers on paper, an 8 rappel, 170m descent, but it is flatly closed: named on Alpes-de-Haute-Provence's prohibited list.
Prohibited year round under prefectural decree n96-1399 (3 July 1996), listed by name as 'Gorges de Taulanne / Senez.' Descente Canyon's regulation tracker still lists the closure active. Treat the stats on file (v4 a4, commitment II, 1.6km shuttle) as historical reference, not trip planning.
