It is in a canoe that you will have the pleasure of discovering the beauty of this 52-km-long canyon. The descent of the Gorges du Tarn offers a series of small rapids from Classe 1 to 3 and stable water bodies. Along the river, you will pass by villages such as Castelbouc, Sainte-Enimie, Saint-Chély du Tarn. Chose your route according to your wishes… You can also opt for our ‘local picnic’ made with delicious local products (Pélardon, pâté, handmade chips…). Also try our 0-carbon hike! An environmentally-friendly descent of 6km and the way back by foot on the GR 736 along the river. Discover our outing at dusk, accompanied by a certified monitor to observe the river far from the crowd and heat, and maybe see beavers!
