ardÈche ADVENTURE

Highlights

  • Prime location next to two rivers, caves & crags

  • 2 day Ardèche River kayak journey (only 20 minutes away)

  • Private on-site swimming pool & cafe / bar

  • Your own exclusive village & dining area

In a  spectacular location set between two rivers in the Ardèche, South of France, this is a truly inspirational setting for an outdoor adventure. 

Camping La Savane is a spacious centre with a large swimming pool, cafe/bar and extensive range of on-site activities.  The real highlight of this trip is the opportunity to spend two days kayaking the Ardèche River, famous for its limestone gorge and the Vallon Pont D'arc. The evening is spent sleeping under the stars at the purpose built bivvi site, which really adds to the adventure and this much loved canoe journey has been enjoyed by school & uniform groups for decades. 

 

At the end of an action packed day, relax in your own private tented village with pre-erected tents (and proper beds) as well as your own marquee. Make use of the large on-site swimming pool, games areas & cafe/bar. 

This 5 night adventure is available from May-August and is one of the best school trips you'll ever experience.
