Description
Enjoy a unique rafting weekend in the Ubaye Valley.
The Tipi Experience is much more than just a rafting trip. It’s an adventure weekend on the Ubaye, combining exhilarating rafting, immersion in the great outdoors and a unique night’s stay in a luxury tipi.
Over two days (two half-days of activity), you’ll paddle down nearly 20 km of river, with a night’s bivouac in the heart of the valley.
Itinerary
Day 1: Mainly Class III rapids, perfect for getting into your stride and enjoying an action-packed first day.
Day 2: After a night in a teepee, it’s time for a more exhilarating section with continuous Class IV rapids.
At the end of the first descent, late in the day, we’ll take the shuttle for just 2 km to bypass a non-navigable section, before heading to our Eco-camp for the evening and a night in a teepee.
You’ll sleep in a top-of-the-range Nordic teepee, fully equipped with: breathable cotton canvas (natural insulation), a cosy living area, comfortable mattresses provided, and a wood-burning stove in spring to create a warm atmosphere
In the evening: a genuine rafting camp-out, combining comfort with authenticity
- preparing meals and barbecues over a wood-fired brazier, or a meal cooked by Nadège (who holds the necessary qualifications)
- a convivial gathering around the embers
- a starry sky in the heart of the Ubaye Valley
- a complete break from it all
