Ardèche Adventure at domaine de segries, ardéche for boys' and girls' brigades or cadets
Discover the dramatic Ardèche
It’s an inspirational location.
The clear water of the Ardèche River, its impressive cliffs and stunning scenery take your breath away.
And with us you experience all of this magnificence from an open canoe.
Bring a little of the wider world into their lives.
Make this a journey of discovery with your Boys’ or Girls’ Brigade.
It’s a chance for them to discover themselves – discover how they respond to an entirely new environment.
Bring out their inner enthusiasm; the determination to succeed.
Let them learn and develop new skills.
Above all of this, though, it’s the glorious memories they’ll bring back; the knowledge of great achievements made in a short space of time and the self-confidence they’ll bring home with them.
Simply put, you can’t do this at home!
Activities
River Adventure
Two or three days are spent doing the 19 mile descent of the Ardèche River which includes the exciting opportunity for your group to camp out beside the river, sleeping beneath the stars on an overnight bivouac.
Day one begins with a session on the water to get to grips with the basic requirements of guiding a canoe down river. Following this you’ll set off in small groups, each with a dedicated instructor to help build each youngster’s skill level and confidence.
More Adventure
The programme for the rest of your stay is full of further adventure and can include a mountain biking expedition through the hillside, canyoning in the Besorgues river gorge, exploring the caves around the Cèze River, or trekking along the riverside to experience the waterfalls at the Cascades De Saudatet. And if that's not enough, there are plenty of adventure activities packed into the centre itself too.
An Excursion Day
We suspend the action for one day to give you the chance to discover the local area and places of interest - or keep the pace up with a trip to a local water park.
Fun-packed Evenings
After an action-packed day of discovery, your group will love our lively evening activity sessions – they’re sure to keep everyone entertained!
