Le Verdon is a place of rare diversity with as much variety in the landscape as there is in the technical difficulties of navigating the rapids. The professionals will advise you on the best route according to your level, whether you have already visited before, or if this is your first time. Accompanied by an instructor, even total beginners can participate in the acquatic activities on offer... as long as they can swim!!!

Rafting is one of the most popular water sports in Le Verdon, and it can be enjoyed by young and old alike. Accompanied children aged 8 and upwards are accepted on the beginners' courses.

Five barrages have been erected in the river so the fluctuations in the water level can be better controlled, although care must always be taken as the water level can change rapidly, depending on how much is retained or released by the barrages.

Find out about the water level before you leave.
