Larousse definition: masculine noun, “the sport of rafting down rivers cut by rapids”.
In simple terms, this is an activity that consists of descending part of a river in an inflatable boat paddled by several crew members. Rafting is a very stable and unsinkable craft, which makes it possible to cross rapids.
Larousse definition: masculine noun, “Break in the longitudinal profile of a watercourse, determined by the existence of a threshold of hard rock between less resistant land. (Often plural.)”.
To put it simply: a rapid is created by a greater difference in level of the river over a given stretch or by a narrowing of the riverbed which creates an acceleration of the water through the venturi effect. The strong turbulence creates air bubbles that give the river a white colour.
It’s not a particularly sporting activity, but it’s a demanding one. You’ll come out of it feeling like you’ve spent an hour in the pool. The river alternates between calm stretches and more agitated passages. The guides in the team are there to adapt to your level and your desires!
We have a descent accessible from 8 years old and the two other descents are accessible from 12 years old.
Just a swimming costume and a towel. We’ll take care of the rest! Oh yes, we will need you to bring your smile too! 😄
