Auteur. You should check it out: Glad you all like it. Once at the canyon rim it is a bit of a strange sight. Both rapids don’t give me major problems although my yak swallows quite some water in the last one.Just downstream of the Clue de Chasteuil, a place where the river breaks through a band of limestone and is pushed into a short canyon, another boulder garden is encountered.

But all this changes abruptly when the metal arc of the Passerelle de l’Estellier appears above the river. The last tunnel in the canyon is carrying the name Tunnel de Guègues and is isolated from the path but still easy to find if you pay attention. There are no two flat square meters to be found and I eventually end with digging my own flat spot in the humus soil between the trees, pulling out each annoying stone in the ground. I threw them off with purpose. The wolves stop their howling. Winter did not finish here long ago. De quoi ravir toute la famille sur ce spot en France!

I once got an infection from a bite last year and even got the classical red circle around the bite even though I’ve never seen the tick itself.

1 mai 2013 18:33 Un peu au dessus des gorges, aller au bout de la RD17 vers Rougon, au pied de l'église du dernier village avant que la RD 17 ne devienne une piste, départ d'une autre piste sur la droite en lacets.

I’m unwillingly startling a chamois family while searching for a sheltered bivouac spot from the wind between the small scattered pines. I can see the snow and hail falling down the clouds in showers over there.I move on over the ridge, keeping distance from the rim to avoid the furious winds rising out of the canyon, temporary walking through the lower lying and old looking pine forest. I realize I’ve made a serious mistake today. The detour has asked me half a day.

During the afternoon I arrive at a look out over the Clue de Carajuan with the Verdon river sparkling deep below in the canyon. We are not yet in the Provence, but it’s not really the Alps here anymore either. The water levels are soon getting solid further away from Castellane for a nice ride in the raft.Fresh baby leaves appear on the branches.

En effet la plupart des bases nautiques du Tarn vous propose de savourer cet instant unique sur plusieurs jours. The sky is dark blue, and a cool mistral breeze is blowing over the mountains. Annecy is a wonderful place for that reason, you can enjoy the lake, do road bike during the day and make a last minute decision to go in the mountains to spend the night! Le bivouac dans le cadre d'une randonnée itinérante est toléré sur accord du propriétaire privé ou public. Actually I have not planned to run the river so far north but as I have been progressing faster then I had thought beforehand, I feel difficult to resist the temptation to try the Verdon river also over here in its upper part.
Just did the packraftcourse from packrafting.de in Leipzig ( which is great BTW) but i sure would not feel comfortable yet to solo raft the verdon trip you posted here.Hi Joery- Amazing adventure and beautifully recorded.
… I’m counting my footsteps towards the source while I’m simultaneously starting a prayer in my mind. Thanks for taking us along – the gorge looks breathtakingly beautiful.Waaaaw. I still have some good water left over and can use it sparingly till I would find a good source tomorrow. Perpetually “looking for adventures out of the ordinary”, follow our journey as we take advantage of every spare moment we have to get out and explore this amazing world. The river has changed however compared to a week before.

The water is captured in a gutter leading to a basin.

Soon I flow into the lake and now I can feel what paddling really is. I’m lucky to start the day dry once again.

Moreover, the neighboring mountain ridge in the northeast by coincidence bears the name Crête du Loup on the map. There is hardly any flow on the river and the wind is now blowing in my back so I have an easy paddle upstream into the canyon.

Due to the presence of this dam the Verdon river looks very differently during the spring once upstream from the lake. From here it is not far anymore to the mouth into Lac de Castillon.

What has changed is the color of the water.

The water simply flows out of the canyon wall on many places in the circ, merging on a wide ledge and eventually falling down deeper into the canyon from the ledge in a series of waterfalls.On arrival at the canyon rim I immediately get a strong northwesterly wind in my face. I’ve never heard a wolf howling before and at first I can’t believe what I’m hearing. Is it my sense of adventure that kept me on the river? The tarp gets pitched low to the ground. I place the mattress on the bed and put all my stuff in my backpack which I hang from the floor to be sure the small rodents won’t put their teeth in my backpack and would steal any of my calorie rich belongings.
