If you thought canoeing was a dull activity, wait until you try onboarding canoe-rafting on the Garonne River! The canoe-raft is an unsinkable small raft for 2 people, allowing you to have more control in the water, and to have more fun if you are looking for thrills. You can enjoy the landscapes and participate in games, water jumps or even river swimming. This descent is made for all ages and levels, between friends or with your family.
Tour programme- Preparation: We meet at
our base in Saint-Béat at the booked time. You will start by putting on your wetsuit in the changing rooms and familiarise yourself with the equipment.
- Tour: Once the equipment is on, a small briefing from your state-certified guide will allow you to know how to behave on the water. We will then leave for an extraordinary adventure, which will alternate between rapids and the calmer parts where you will be able to admire the landscape.
- Arrival: At the end of your tour, a bus will take you back to the base for a good rest as well as the possibility of picnicking or booking a table at the restaurant by the lake.
