The one-day 36 km canoe trip down the Ardèche is “the” formula for experienced sportsmen and women! This is the longest route we can offer you in just one day, and you’ll need to be prepared for a fairly intense physical effort to reach the landing stage at Sauze and complete the entire descent of the Ardèche (see map).

With several dyke crossings via toboggans at the start of the run, and a passage under the majestic Pont d’Arc, you’ll leave the day with plenty of memories.
