Rafting in the Southern Alps (8 days)
white water sports and rafting trip in the French South AlpsSpending a whole week paddling down the great rivers of the Southern Alps means discovering the most beautiful and diverse rafting sites in this region: Ubaye, Bachelard, Gyronde, Guil, Durance... This trip will allow you to cross the Briançonnais rivers passing through the Queyras Gorges where the river Guil is the only one witnessing the magical scenery this part of France has to offer.

L’Ubaye is a wild unspoilt river presenting all the unique qualities of a white water paradise. From Barcelonette to Lake Serre-Ponçon, the Ubaye River challenges your capabilities on its increasingly difficult stretches of white water.

A technically challenging, but pleasant, navigation awaits you to guide you through the famous Martinet-Lauzet area to the high “Ex” (a series of rapids known to have been insurmountable in previous days!). And if there is enough water in the river, we challenge you to “combat” these famous “Ex” rapids. This will really get your adrenaline going!
