Rafting The rivers of this region provide some excellent rafting. Included in the Alps trip is an 18km descent of the River Durance, including Grade 3 rapids. There is also an optional trip down the Gyr at Grade 4/5 for those who find the first one whets their appetite. white Learn More Canyoning Coming from the glaciers and mountain lakes of the area, streams of cold and crystal clear water tumble down the mountainsides in waterfalls and rapids. Descending these by abseiling and jumping, sliding and generally having fun in the water makes up the sport of canyoning.
