Packraft / Rafting & Fly Fishing

A truly unique adventure in France

Well known in the United States and South America, this approach remains largely confidential in France. Yet when conditions align, the experience is incomparable — and the sense of adventure reaches another level.
Walking along a river already offers a powerful connection to nature.
But gliding on the water — like the trout themselves — is something else entirely.
Descending a river by packraft or raft reveals an incredible number of stunning fishing spots, discovered bend after bend, places that are simply unreachable on foot.
For these adventures, the rivers explored include:
the Tinée River,
the Ubaye River,
and the spectacular Daluis Gorges.
Naturally, water levels must be optimal for both safe navigation and quality fishing. This makes these trips rare — but all the more exceptional.
As a pioneer of this practice in France, which I have developed through years of personal exploration, my goal is to further expand these adventures in the future — on iconic rivers such as the Pyrenean Gaves, the Allier, the Tarn, and ultimately through expeditions in Patagonia 🙂

Who is this adventure for?
This experience is designed for those who:
already have some fishing experience (though expert level is not required),
want to learn how to navigate safely on rivers,
wish to experience the magic of bivouac,
and discover the full potential of the packraft — an ultra-light inflatable kayak, compact like a sleeping bag, offering true autonomy once the adventure is over.
In short, this is a perfect gift idea or an unforgettable experience for anyone with a true spirit of adventure.
