Canoe or Kayak
Open all year - reservation is advised
The river Drome is ideal for discovering wild waters with friends or family.
The water borne journeys (2 days, 1 days, 1/2 days, 1 hour) await you with a shuttle there or back.
On reservation an expert will share with you her knowledge of the wildlife (beavers/herons ect.)
The trips of 4 to 45 kms present no major difficulties, no dams, no portage.
Only a number of rapids (class 2 - easy) and bathing places will interfere with your descent.
Our fleet of canoes and kayaks are the latest generation, stable, manageable and unsinkable.
