All you need to do is to put on a harness, follow a few simple safety instructions, and all the fun and excitement will be yours !

This real forest adventure is performed in an exceptionnally beautiful 3 ha. site planted with pine trees and broadleaved-trees, and is bordered with cliffs overlooking the Verdon river.

Saturday afternoon : WATER-RAMBLING

Meet at 2:00 PM at our «Adventure Forest» base (See access map)

where the ABOARD Rafting guides are waiting for you. From there, we will transport you in an ABOARD Rafting minibus to the Samson corridor (a 20-minute drive).

Equiped with a wetsuit, a helmet and a life jacket, you let the current carry you gently along the river and take you to discover the Verdon’s best-kept mineral secrets. A “water ramble” not only implies floating, but also jumping and swimming in clear water, or walking around rapids, fallen trees or any obstacle we might encounter.

The activity begins with an introduction to the environment and an initiation to abseiling techniques.

A 5 m jump follows, and the canyon opens up again.

A series of descents and jumps leads us to the top of a waterfall, which we will bypass using a 40-metre zip line strung from one bank to the other.

Other jumps (of 6 and 7 m. for the highest) will take us from pool to pool to the last slide.

At the exit of the canyon, a short walk back (10 mins) will take us back to the vehicles left at the arrival point.

At the bottom of the canyon, a short walk is necessary to return to the starting point.
