Activity description

Come and discover canoraft (canoe-rafting) or hot dog on the Nive, in Bidarray, near Biarritz, in the heart of the Basque Country.

On board your boat, you will go for an incredible descent of the Nive in canoe-rafting, one of the prettiest rivers of the region. The 1h30 descent will be punctuated by animations planned by the instructor, such as rock jumping, jousting, speed challenges, etc. During your trip between the Pyrenees and Biarritz, you may be lucky enough to come across pottocks (small horses from the region), foals, sheep, vultures, falcons, etc. Your experienced instructor will accompany you between Ossès and Bidarray, and will help you steer your canoraft to enjoy all the sensations of canoeing and rafting on the rapids of the Nive.

Don't hesitate any longer and come and take a seat in your boat in Bidarray, near Biarritz, to enjoy canorafting or hot dog in the Basque Country.

Offer Description

Smaller and more manoeuvrable than rafting, the canoraft or hot dog is more fun and playful. You will discover the art and the way to steer a canoraft, under the attentive eye of your instructor who will stay close by.
