Info
Sit-on-Top Kayaking
Solid or Inflatable.
In the French Alps, Provence and day trips on Dartmoor
Sit-on-Tops are great for people wanting a fast track to the fun and excitement of white water. They are forgiving, stable and easy to use. No prior experience is necessary and from the moment you start you will enjoy the buzz of river running. There will be plenty of thrills and some spills, but our guides will be on hand to ensure your safety.
After the first day you will feel more relaxed; your confidence and skill will have grown, and you will want to take on more challenging rivers. With our guides help you will discover and paddle some of Europe’s finest white water.
We run both single and double inflatables and we will kit you out with all the river equipment needed. Families, couples, groups or individuals can all enjoy the experience. If you have your own plastic Sit-on Top why not bring it to the Alps for a fantastic adventure.
Because we are based in the Alps for the whole white water season we can offer you dates and trips throughout the summer. Trip options can be for a day or a week. We can customise a course just for you and your group. We have a range of accommodation to offer, from full board camping to self-catering apartments. Please contact us for availability.
Temperatures of 25°-30°c, a backcloth of stunning, snow capped mountains, delicious French food and wine. What a fantastic combination for your holiday!
