An Adapted Challenge

The “River & Disability” offer from Rafting Expérience has been developed to meet the specific needs of people with disabilities. Private two-hour sessions are available with customized courses and equipment based on each participant’s abilities. This personalized approach allows everyone to fully enjoy the experience, regardless of their disabilities.

Adaptive Equipment in Serre Chevalier

Rafting Expérience has developed specially adapted equipment to facilitate the participation of people with disabilities. For example, we use velcro belts/shorts to ensure the safety of participants on board the boats. Additionally, we have introduced palm gloves to replace traditional fins used in hydrospeed, providing better maneuverability. These simple yet effective innovations ensure the comfort and safety of the participants.

Activities for All

Disability should not be an obstacle to participating in white-water sports. On the contrary, it offers new opportunities and enhances physical and mental well-being. Almost all white-water sports practiced by able-bodied individuals can also be enjoyed by people with disabilities. This includes rafting, air-boat, kayaking, canoe-raft, and hydrospeed.

Promoting Core Values

These adapted white-water sports promote fundamental values such as mutual aid, perseverance, teamwork, and self-assertion. Participating in these activities gives people with disabilities the opportunity to reconnect with nature, overcome challenges, build self-confidence, and create memorable experiences. It is a unique chance to feel alive, overcome obstacles, and create lasting memories.
