Tour programme
Preparation
The meeting point is directly at our base in Agonès, 15 min before the scheduled time. Then, a shuttle will take you to the starting point where we will provide you with the necessary equipment such as life jackets, a waterproof canister, the canoe and the paddle. Then, a short initiation on the use of your equipment will be given to you.
Tour
From the start in Ganges, marvel at the beautiful landscapes and enjoy the unique setting of the Herault Gorges! During the tour, you would have the opportunity to pass in front of the fabulous medieval town of Laroque and to cross a suspension bridge. You will also cross several rapids more or less sporty! Finally, take a well-deserved break on one of the beaches of the descent: it is the occasion to swim and to picnic!
Return
Once you reach the end of the descent, a shuttle (last departure: 5 pm) is waiting to take you back to the base. And that's the wrap up of a wonderful day ! On Thursday evening, we organise a dinner by the river (information and reservations directly on site).
