We’ve got two fun-filled weekend packages to liven up your summer!
The Arc Aventures team invites you to the Haute-TarentaiseMountains for a great time surrounded by amazing natural beauty.
You can get here easily by taking the train or driving to Bourg St Maurice- Les Arcs and discover the wide range ofexciting outdoor activities we have to offer.
 #1: The full- white water experience in Bourg Saint Maurice
Day 1 Calling all young adventurers! We’ve got an extreme ride in store for you on the Isere River that twists and turns through our valley, get ready for big waves and prepare to get drenched!
Come with family, with friends or as a couple; you choose who you want in the boat but you should all be ready to give it everything you’ve got. In rafting, everyone has to pull their weight or risk ending up in the the river. You’ll have to paddle hard, follow your guide’s instructions to the letter and work as a team through the rushing waters. The rapids on the Isere can be quite a challenge but it’s worth it to see some of this region’s most beautiful nature spots.From the river you can see a whole new side of the valley and discover some lovely hidden gems that are inaccessible by land.;)
When you’ve conquered the river it’s off to The Base Camp Lodge just along from the Arc Aventures white water base. It’s the perfect spot to catch your breath and have a drink with your group to unwind after all your hard work. The Base Camp Lodge is the newest landmark in Bourg Saint Maurice. It is has an authentic, timeless atmosphere (much like our mountains!) and is perfect for relaxing. With its bar, restaurant, and many planned events you’ll want for nothing. The hotel has a wide range of rooms to choose from, each with its own unique character and exceptional views of the mountains. If you are more suited to community life you can always opt for the dormitory accommodation for a much livelier scene!
Day 2 The next morning, you might be feeling a bit achy! It’s completely normal so take your time over a hearty breakfast to regain your strength and then we’re off for another day of excitement.
For the second day of adventure we will be taking the white water activities up a level with Hydrospeed swimming and canyoning.
Hydrospeed swimming means leaving the safety of the rafts and facing the full force of the river head on. Don’t worry though we don’t just toss you in and hope for the best! You’ll be kitted out with an inflatable body board to protect your torso and fins to help you navigate the obstacles. You will be in the heart of the action with our trusty guides to show you the safest path along the river and with a little practice you’ll be playing in the whirlpools and counter currents in no time.
After a packed lunch in the picnic area, it’ll be on to the canyoning site a bit further down the valley.
Equipped with your neoprene wetsuit, harness, carabiners and helmet, you’re ready to go on an even bigger adventure; following the path of the rivers that have carved their way right through the rock of the mountains.
Canyoning is a very diverse sport full of adrenaline and lots of different challenges. You may start off wading through an innocent looking stream but when you come to the 10 metre waterfall a little further down you’ve got to decide:“Am I jumping it or abseiling down?” A bit later you might come to a natural slide carved into the rock and you’ll need to decide if you’re taking the plunge or would rather the guide lowered you down by your harness. These moments are full of adrenaline and emotion but doing them as a team is a great experience. The scarier bits are broken up by plenty of calm moments; walking along the riverbed and swimming in the deeper pools not to mention gazing up at the gorgeous views all around you.
-> Here we are already at the end of our 2 day programme. As you can see, it’s an action packed time we’ve got in store for you. Extreme sports in the heart of the beautiful mountain valley: with thrills, serene moments of reflection and a jolly time for your group.
Don’t wait any longer to book your visit to our river.
We offer the special package of these three activities at the special price of € 169 per person *
(* 1 X Full Raft Isère, 1 X Hydrospeed Swimming Discovery Isère, 1 X Canyon Discovery // Price does not include transport, accommodation or catering // Offer subject to conditions)

 #2: Multi-activity pack in Bourg SMaurice and Les Arcs. For this second package, you will be taken on a journey full of discovery, which will allow you to try several types of mountain activities between the town of Bourg Saint Maurice and Les Arcs. You’re in for a great time that will not fail to amaze you with the beauty of our landscapes and you’ll make many wonderful memories.
Day 1: White water Rafting and Hydro speed swimming
Nothing beats rafting to start off the day! “PADDLE HARDER! … TO THE LEFT! … NO, THE OTHER LEFT! I MEANT AWAY FROM THE BOULDER”
Rafting is the best way to see all the features of the Isère River. The rapids, the calmly rippling waters and the winding paths are yours to explore and enjoy. After going down the river, a picnic at the Arc Aventures white water base is definitely in order as everyone, all that paddling builds quite the appetite.
We’re not done with the river yet though: Plouf! We dive back into the Isère for some Hydrospeed Swimming. Hang on tight to your body board and swim as hard as you can with the current to avoid obstacles and get to the calmer waters where you can let yourself float along without a care.
After your day in the river, we suggest a jump from 800m up to 1800m for the next step.
Have a wonderful dinner and spend the night in Arc 1800courtesy of Julie at the l’Aiguille Grive Chalets-Hotel
At Julie’s you’ll be well fed and can relax and recharge your batteries in the cosy, comfortable surroundings.
The hotel has many services to over, including concierges, room service and handy luggage storage. Guests can also enjoy the sauna and breakfast.
Day 2: Mont-Blanc Treetop Adventure Course
Day two and it’s time to take to the treetops! The adventure course is handily located in Arc 1800, only a short walk from the Aiguille Grive hotel and offers a fun challenging time for all. You can work your way up the many different levels of the course by striding along rope bridges, crossing monkey swings, wobbling over balancing beams, whizzing along zip wires and much more!
Don’t worry, we won’t let you fall! You’ll be fully kitted out with the necessary safety equipment and given a detailed briefing and demonstration that will allow you go through the course safely, overcoming all the obstacles.
Lunch at the Chalet Grillette
It’s midday, and you’ll be getting a little peckish but we’ve got you covered! A short cable car ride and quick walk will take you to the Chalet Grillette. It’s a family friendly restaurant offering simple, tasty, local food that you can enjoy out on the terrace with a great view of the Mont-blanc golf course and the surrounding mountain peaks.
Paragliding
To finish off with a bang, Arc Aventures will take you even higher with a tandem paragliding flight that mixes anadrenaline filled take off with the serenity of gliding weightlessly over the valley.
Experience for a moment what it’s like to be a bird drifting on the winds over beautiful countryside. The feeling of freedom and the rush as you’re lifted gently on the thermal air currents. Take in the majestic mountain ranges stretching away as far as the eye can see and the snow-capped peaks all around you (including, of course, the Mont-Blanc!) 😉
We offer the special package of these four activities at the special price of € 240 per person *
(* 1 Integral Raft Isère, 1 Hydrospeed Swimming Discovery Isère, 1 Treetop Adventure Course, 1 Tandem Paragliding Discovery Flight // Price does not include transport, accommodation or catering // Offer subject to conditions)
