Canoe
Package Programme
This programme is quite flexible and includes your accommodation along with the most spectacular experience of journeying through the Gorges de l’Ardèche by canoe or kayak with an expert English guide. Perfect for couples, families and groups who either want lots of free time, or who want to have the opportunity to add other activities when they are there.
"Thanks Daniel. You made it a very enjoyable experience; informative, well organised and friendly - I liked the incidental 'history notes' etc and felt very confident that we were in safe hands." Anne and Kelly.
Two days paddling are included within the price
and will consist of either two separate days, or two days with an overnight bivouac (bivvi), depending on preference. Nothing tops off the experience of canoeing through the Nature
Reserve quite like sleeping out under the stars, surrounded by sheer cliffs and
the sounds of the Gorge. Don't worry though, because, although basic, the bivvi
site does have facilities such as toilets, showers, a BBQ site, and a group tent (in case of bad weather) - so, you won't be completely roughing it! It also helps
to split up the river into slightly less strenuous sections, giving you the
opportunity and time to better appreciate your surroundings at a more leisurely
pace. Most trips include the bivouac.
