In a few words

Cliffs, rivers, and bivouacs : this 5-day trip in the Ubaye Gorges is an active immersion in the heart of the Southern Alps . Here, each day is punctuated by a different activity: rock climbing along the lake , packrafting on calm and then whitewater, and canyoning in the river's crystalline pools. In a wild setting of sculpted cliffs , cool forests , and turquoise waters, you'll explore one of the most beautiful Alpine canyons on a multi-day trek. Carrying gear, navigating, nights in tents, and technical progression follow one another in an accessible adventure spirit, where you gain confidence while having fun. This condensed multi-activity experience in the great outdoors offers a playful yet challenging approach, designed for those who want to learn, push their limits, and experience the outdoors in a new way .

The highlights

Rémi

I've been passionate about all paddle sports for 20 years. Whether it's on rivers, flat water, or the sea, I'm always motivated to head out into nature and share my passions! Besides that, I have a real knack for teaching, and it's a genuine pleasure to pass on what I've learned both on and off the water.

Lou

My name is Lou, and I'm a certified mountain guide (AMM), kayak instructor, climbing instructor, and cycling instructor. I'm passionate about nature, adventure, and exploration, and it's always a pleasure for me to take you through mountains and rivers. Through play and hands-on experience, my goal is to gradually guide you towards independence!
