Two days in the Gorges, this a unique experience !
After carefully putting your things in the barrel, you will start the trip at only a few kilometers before the Pont d’Arc. This first day will bring you to the bivouac of Gaud or Gournier.
On these two camping in the nature reserve of the Gorges de l’Ardèche, you will find showers and toilets, drink water and barbecues (possibility to rent a tent or matrass).
The night under the stars is a magical moment for big and small.
The next day, enjoy your day and take your time to explore, play and relax in the magnificient surroundings of this nature reserve.

L’Aventure
- 36Km
- 2Days
- 8h00Average
paddle time
Two days of adventure with night in bivouac in the heart of the Ardèche Gorges Nature Reserve, and the combination of 5 km, 7 km and 24 km courses for a superb and unforgettable descent of the Ardèche by canoe.
Pack Eau Vive I
- 7 + 24 Km
- 2Days
- 6h00Average
paddle time
The 31 km canoe descent seduces you, but too sporty for 1 day, and the night in a bivouac does not appeal to you. Opt for this pack, choose your 2 days of descent and the order of the routes 7 km + 24 km.
Pack Eau Vive II
- 12 + 24 Km
- 2Days
- 7h00Average
paddle time
Same principle as Pack I: 2 descents over 2 days, not necessarily consecutive, without night in a bivouac, in the order that suits you to cover 12 km and 24 km and experience of these 2 beautiful descents at your leisure.
