Welcome of the participants by the rafting guides, then delivery of the equipment and briefing for a descent of the Verdon in raft, to our beach of the Pinède (approximately 8 km and 1h30 of navigation).

The first part is easy; it allows a gentle initiation into the handling of the raft. Then we cross rapids of increasing difficulty with, as a final, the famous Barre St. Jean (class III rapid: medium difficulty) (see the classification of rapids), the climax of this descent.

LES JOURS SANS LÂCHER D’EAU : AQUA-RANDO

Meet at 9 AM à notre base « Adventure Forest » proche de Castellane (See access map) où vous attendent les guides d’ABOARD Rafting. De là, nous vous acheminerons avec un mini-bus d’ABOARD Rafting au couloir Samson (20 mn. de route).

We find the Samson corridor belvedere after about 20 minutes of walking.

Equipped with a wetsuit, helmet, and life jacket, we let ourselves be carried by the current, floating and swimming. We return to the banks each time it is necessary to walk around an obstacle (obstructed rapids, siphons).

We jump, swim or walk in the clear water so as not to miss any of the magnificent scenery that unfolds before our eyes.

This is undoubtedly the most appropriate technique for discovering the hidden natural beauties at the bottom of the Verdon Gorge. We find the Belvédère du Couloir Samson after about 20 minutes of walking.
