The 2-day canoe trip with bivouac down the Ardèche is the canoe trip for nature lovers. This slow-paced, two-day trip takes in the whole of the Ardèche Gorges and nature reserve, with plenty of swimming and waterside breaks and a magnificent passage under the Pont d’Arc, and punctuates the first day with a night in one of the authorized bivouacs: Gaud and de Gournier. However, the ticket for the bivouac area is not included..
