Details
Looking for a thrill? Take to the water along the Isère with our "Discovery" hydrospeed.
Lying on your float, carried by the flow of the river and guided by your swim fins, you'll float down the river accompanied by our best guides. An ideal activity for sports enthusiasts!
Tour programme
We will meet you at the Arc Aventures - Base d'eaux-vives reception chalet, 10 minutes before the start of the session. You will meet your State-certified guide at the booked time in order to learn the few steps needed to begin hydrospeed. After quick formalities, you will put on your gear and step into the water on a high-quality flotation device with your flippers. Then, you can start steering on the river and feel the current through your body. A one of a kind experience that will allow you to be at an eye-level view on the water, with your guide following close to you. After more than an hour of fun in the water, you will be driven back to the base and enjoy the rest of your time in Bourg-Saint-Maurice on dry land.
