A 23km descent that lasts 3 hours and takes you to the opening of the Grand Canyon.

A 23km descent that lasts 3 hours and takes you to the opening of the Grand Canyon.

Start from Castellane and travel down the entire length of the Gorge. Arriving at the bottom of Point Sublime is just incredible! The view from Point Sublime itself is sure to take your breath away with its impressive cliffs, and if you’re lucky you may even spot a Griffon Vulture!

At the end, you will probably get thrown (!) by the Class 4 rapid ‘Le Solitaire’, which will definitely get your adrenaline pumping…

N.B. At the end of the trip, the boat must be deflated, rolled up and carried back up to the minibus, along with the equipment (a 15 minute climb).

This trip can be done from April through to the first week of July, and then from the last week of August through to mid-October.

Description Rafting : Rafting formula Integrale

For all RAFTING activities starting from Castellane, the EDF dams MUST be open.

Otherwise, we use the reduced water flow to ‘swim’ through the Grand Canyon du Verdon. This is our famous AQUA-TREKKING activity!

In July and August, the dams normally open on Tuesdays and Fridays.

Apart from these two months, there are no set rules; it all depends on the rain and snowfall we’ve had over winter.

However, if the sun is out, a white-water activity is always possible somewhere (the Haut Verdon or the Gorges de Daluis in spring, Aqua-trekking, Canyoning...).

If you give us a ring we can go through all the possible options with you.
