We meet at the Sportrent shop in Chantemerle. There is a car park opposite where you can park your vehicle. There you will meet your instructors who will provide you with your equipment and give you some technical explanations, but also interesting information about the river. You can change in our changing rooms and leave your belongings in secure lockers. Afterwards, everyone meets up in the shuttle bus, which will drop you off at Villeuneuve-la-Salle for the start of the river trip.
- Tour:
This 6 km trip goes down from Villeneuve to Briançon, where the Guisane river flows into the Durance. It is the ideal opportunity to spend a unique and emotional moment with friends. You will cross dynamic and perilous passages, especially before Briançon, which will remain in your memory. The river is often narrow and rocky throughout its course, and gains in intensity to offer you a final crescendo that is quite unforgettable.

After 2 hours of journey, you will arrive in Briançon. As it is important to share the stories of your adventures, you will be welcomed with a drink and a small snack, perfect for a convivial moment.
