Details
The sports part of the Isère river promises to be full of emotions! This rafting on the Haute-Isère river is made for all athletes from 12 years old and does not require any previous experience. From the start, the rapids will put your paddling technique to the test, in this case the famous Aime rapids like "the dining room", "the ham cutting machine" or "the dessert". On the physical side, it is as if you spent those 1.5 hours in a swimming pool, the rapids being the equivalent of swimming. A sporting and jolly moment in perspective!
