Tour programme
- Preparation:
We meet at the car park of the Castellane swimming pool 30 minutes before the chosen time. You will recognize us by our blue trailer. You will meet your instructor who will give you your equipment and explain to you how to handle the paddle as well as brief you on the safety instructions. You will be able to leave your belongings in your vehicle and your keys in our car. Once everyone is ready, we will head to the nearby river and you will board your raft, which holds up to 8 people.
- Tour:
The descent begins in Castellane, with a breathtaking view of the town and its ramparts. Then it's off for 2.5 hrs of descent, alternating fast and quieter sections. You will be able to admire the magnificent landscapes of the gorges but also feel the thrills of white water.
- Return:
Once the descent is over, our shuttle will take you back to the car park where you will find your vehicle.
