White Water Rafting Down The Ubaye River

With over 50 km of rapids, the wild Ubaye river in the north of Provence is regarded as one of the best and most beautiful in France for white water rafting. The scenery mixes Mediterranean luxuriance with Alpine cragginess and racing along the river in an inflatable boat allows an intimate view of it that you'll never see from the road. Will you be able to enjoy it? Well, some images of white water rafting make the sport look truly terrifying, but - while this will never be a sedate and relaxing ride - the Ubaye runs present different levels of difficulty, starting with level 2 which is comfortably within the abilities of beginners and young children (rafters are required to confirm that they're able to swim, however).  Click here to read more.
