Charging down the rapids in an inflatable boat not only gives you a buzz - it's a different way  to enjoy beautiful scenery that you'll never see from paths or roadways. It may look challenging, but rafting can be enjoyed even by first-timers as outings are set at different levels of difficulty, from 1, which is easy, to 5, which is very difficult. The raft holds between 3 – 6 people and is manned by an experienced rafter.

White water rafting on French rivers

France is host to many famous rivers against which you can pit your skills. The River Lot is a family favourite; in the main it flows broad and gentle, but rest assured it does have moments of turbulence. The Ardeche is another popular choice that promises breath-taking scenes as well as a few knuckle-biting moments. Or, if its adventure you want, you could choose the Ubaye River. The Ubaye River is one of the most attractive rivers of the Alps, 80km in length, and flows under the Mediterranean sun in a wild valley. The advance run will see you flying down a fantastic canyon through thrilling steep rapids.
