The whitewater day programme we offer on the Haut-Verdon includes a first descent of the Fontgaillarde gorges by raft in the morning, followed by a second descent by canoe-raft in the afternoon (after scouting it by raft) to fully enjoy this beautiful route.<\/p>\n

Meet at 10:00<\/b> at the Adrech campsite, 6 km from St-Andr\u00e9-les-Alpes and 30 minutes from Castellane (See access plan<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Participants are welcomed by the ABOARD Rafting guides, then transferred to the starting point.<\/p>\n

Collection of equipment and briefing for a raft descent of the Haut-Verdon, from the Roman bridge to the Allons bridge (approx. 14 km and 2h30<\/b> navigation).<\/p>\n

The guides will provide you with the fundamental basic techniques to get you started with handling this craft.<\/p>\n

Then we will navigate the Fontgaillarde gorges. The landscape is very wild in this high valley; the river is hemmed in for most of the descent through the gorges.<\/p>\n

The river has a constant current, with rapids (class II, III)See the classification of rapids<\/a>) continuously, but without any major rapids. A series of twists and turns along the cliffs follow one after the other until we reach the end of the gorges. Along the way, we\u2019ll have the chance to admire a few waterfalls cascading into the river.<\/p>\n

The descent ends at the bottom of the gorges, where we will have lunch.<\/p>\n

In the afternoon, departure at 14:00<\/b> du pont Clos for a canoe-rafting trip.<\/p>\n

The guides will explain the technical basics of handling this two-person craft and will accompany you in kayaks to show you the best routes.<\/p>\n

The descent immediately becomes sportier than in rafting.
\nThe turns follow one another in the gorges and require concentration and coordination from the team members.<\/p>\n

Arrival is at the Allons bridge, where you will find your vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n
