About the activity

The Verdon offers a dream setting for water sports enthusiasts: turquoise waters that can be calm or lively, dramatic gorges, and untouched wilderness. If you love adrenaline and group activities, rafting down the Verdon is an experience you won’t want to miss.

In a fun, social atmosphere, you’ll enjoy laughter, splashes, and teamwork. Coordinating with your fellow rafters, you’ll learn to paddle effectively and position yourself correctly in the raft. Then, your raft will navigate the rapids, giving you a thrilling ride amid the grandeur of the Verdon Gorge.

Options for your rafting excursion:

  • Discovery Route from Castellane: A 1.5-hour descent, ideal for first-time rafters in the Verdon Gorge.
  • “Point Sublime” Route from Chasteuil: A 3-hour, more challenging and sporty descent through the heart of the Grand Gorges, where the cliffs narrow and the river becomes more dynamic.

Regardless of your skill level, you can enjoy rafting on the Verdon Gorge and share the experience with friends or family. For your safety, each raft is guided by a certified, experienced instructor (1 guide per 8 participants) who will provide paddling tips and ensure you feel confident throughout the descent.

Grab your swimsuit, trainers, and towel, and join the Haute Provence Outdoor team in Chasteuil for a safe and unforgettable rafting adventure on the Verdon!
