Rafting on the Durance - Embrun
Overview
On the Durance, rafting is practicable for the whole family thanks to inflatable boats that can range from 4 to 10 seats.
You can descend this magnificent river at the gates of the Ecrins National Park, between the village of Châteauroux-les-Alpes and Embrun for a half-day discovery or between Eygliers and Embrun for the day punctuated by a barbecue meal by the river in front of the magnificent wave of Rabioux.
Throughout this descent our rafting guides will show you the maneuvers that allow you to navigate safely on the river.
The adventure then begins with sharing of splashes, swimming and good humor.
