Itinerary
-
Our half-day on the Gave de Pau from Villelongue is a good way to tackle the rapids in a group or with the family on the most beautiful course in the Vallée des Gaves.
You choose the boat you like. The stability of our rafts and mini-rafts will reassure the whole family. The canoe (hot dog) will delight the adventurer duos and the kayak (ait boat) will prove to be the best ally of the hotheads who will face the rapids alone! In any case, you will be able to fill up on sensations accompanied by your instructor.
By booking in the spring, you enjoy the tumult of the turquoise water resulting from the melting snow. As summer sets in, the course softens somewhat to become a superb playground, which continues to happily jostle young and old in complete safety!
