Two descents in one day is your chance to become an expert of the Nive river and explore its landscapes in the nooks and crannies. Your programme will be divided between challenging rapids and quieter parts where you will have time to admire the majestic landscapes of the Basque Country. Enjoy the barbecue (included in the price) between the two activities, that we will eat on a beach by the river. The afternoon, paddling will look easy to you thanks to your experience in the morning!
