Rafting en Ubaye

The Ubaye Valley 

Nestled between the Hautes Alpes and the Alpes de Haute-Provence, the Ubaye valley is one of the most beautiful destinations for rafting.

In spring, when the snow melts, the Ubaye becomes a gigantic torrent with huge rapids. From then on we go rafting on ephemeral courses such as the Haute-Ubaye between Italy and Jausiers or the Bachelard at the gateway to the Mercantour Park in the commune of Pra-Loup.

When the conditions become milder, rafting between Barcelonnette and the Serre-Ponçon lake is available to all. From the age of 5, it is possible to go on an adventure on this wild river in complete safety.

For thrill-seekers, 2 steep sections are available if conditions permit

Join us in the Ubaye valley to try the amazing experience of white water rafting down the Ubaye.

This river in France is one of the most beautiful rivers in the Southern Alps. Its natural course, without any dam, lends itself perfectly to the practice of unusual descents in the middle of nature. 

Whatever your level and experience, we can offer you a discovery or sensational trip with the activity of your choice.

The most beautiful part of the Ubaye to go rafting in spring or canoeing in summer is at our base in Méolans-Revel between Barcelonnette and the Lac de Serre-Ponçon.

Each guide, passionate such as Nicolas, Charles or Guillaume will accompany you for the discovery or the improvement for the most beautiful descent of the Ubaye in raft.

Whatever the number of people, in family or between thrill-seekers, the descent of the Ubaye in rafting is practiced from the age of 4 years. Jumps and swimming in white water are part of each rafting trip.

It is a great gift idea for a day or weekend in the Alpes de Haute Provence.

If rafting on the Ubaye is not enough for you, try canoeing, hydrospeed or canyoning.

Join us at our waterside base to discover the most beautiful white water sports activities with an experienced guide.

Embark on the most beautiful rafting trip on the Ubaye from the hamlet of Martinet in Méolans-Revel to the village of Le Lauzet.

If your level allows it, we will embark on the sport course with a superb photo of your descent in the Ubaye valley.

For a day or a weekend, organise a family holiday in Provence near Barcelonnette. Many white water sports activities on the Ubaye will be possible.

On the classic course from Le Martinet to Méolans Revel, rafting is a great option for a large group of people.

Depending on your level, the hydrospeed activity can be a good option to train in white water swimming.

Or why not offer a canoe or canyoning trip as a gift?

And after all that, a little paddle break on the shores of the Serre Ponçon lake in Le Lauzet will give you a great impression of your unusual day in Ubaye.

When you get off the raft, you will find some wonderful photos that you can offer as a gift with a sliding scale of charges depending on the number of people.

It's not for nothing that the French kayak team has chosen the Ubaye river as a regular venue for a round of the downhill championship.

You will make up your own mind once the Ubaye rafting trip is added to the list of the most beautiful days of your life.
