TOUR DESCRIPTION
We propose you to come and visit us at our whitewater center in the Tarentaise valley in Savoie (1h30 from Annecy and Aix les Bains, 1h00 from Chambery) and to dive into the heart of the elements with our HYDROSPEED trip of Gorges section of the Isere river.
This 7 km trip is our Introduction course and is ideal if you have never practiced hydrospeeding.
Next to the safety talk, let’s go for 7 km of fun! The first part is pretty quiet and this section is a good warm-up and allows everyone to get comfortable and understand how to deal with the fins and the board.
Just downstream of the Virgin Gorges section with its vertical cliffs, it’s time for the serious stuff on the last section of the course: Centron rapids are 2 kilometres and a half long full of class IV rapids where you will taste the joys of white water and apply all the techniques learned on the top of the course: surfing in the rollers, slalom between the rocks, crossing the waves, etc…
A beautiful descent to discover hydrospeeding on the nicest part of the Isere river!
To practice Hydrospeed, it is mandatory to know how to swim.
