ACTIVITIES
Raft
The Raft is an inflatable boat seating up to 8 people. It is designed for hurtling down rapids in complete safety, with a guide behind you who gives instructions and directions. The crew play a key role and follow the guide’s directions, it requires teamwork, and everyone learns to move forwards together: as if one single person!
Cano-raft
The cano-raft is a small 2-person boat. It hugs the waves allowing for increased sensation, and for you to be more daring. You have more independence, after the guide has given an explanation at the base, you will be able to choose the direction and propulsion of the boat as a team to avoid obstacles and best take on the rapids.
Mini-raft
The little brother of the raft holds a maximum 4 people, you paddle independantly, and the guide will be in a canoe to show you the routes and help you to master the mini-raft.
Air-boat
Great adventurers, you who seek out sporting challenges and wish to take the river on head-to-head… This activity is for you!
The air-boat is a boat which most closely resembles a kayak. It will open you up to a world of sensations. It offers you stability and speed of manoeuvre: this boat adapts to any water conditions of the river!
You are alone on the boat and benefit from the advice of a guide who will be at your side.
It is easy to manage, and you will discover the dizzying rapids of Gorges de Tines, followed by the tranquillity of the calmer waters of the Vallon plains. A fun and exciting boat!
