The maxi adventure: An accessible and fun course!
After a gentle start without rapids, you will enjoy five slides before tackling a few rapids and passing under the Pont d’Arc. A great way to experience some thrilling sensations at a gentle pace!
Meet at 11:30am: in Châmes (Point 7) – End of the course.
Our team will welcome you and give you a short briefing on the descent and safety instructions.
You will then be transported by shuttle bus to the start of the course.
From the outset, you will be on a calm section of the river with no rapids, ideal for getting your bearings.
The experience quickly becomes more fun: you will go through five slides, small slides specially designed to make the trip even more enjoyable. These passages, both technical and dynamic, offer you the first thrills of the descent.
The second part of the course takes you to small rapids, perfect for gently experiencing the pleasures of white water. Laughter, splashes and light sensations are guaranteed. Then comes one of the highlights of the excursion: the Charlemagne rapids and the passage under the famous Pont d’Arc, a majestic natural arch formed by the river itself. A spectacular setting that leaves a lasting impression.
At the end of this adventure, you can get straight back on the road, as your car is in the car park right next to the finish line.
