Whitewater swimming is a water sport and outdoor activity practiced in rivers.
You lie face-down on your foam sled, which allows you to glide and navigate the water.
The Isère is the river in Savoie best suited for whitewater swimming or hydrospeed.
The Gorge route, from Aime to Centron—which is recommended for beginners—is a challenging descent that lets you experience the thrill of gliding through the rapids and riding the waves right from your first session (a 7-kilometer descent, about 1 hour and 30 minutes in the water).
Once you’ve mastered the techniques of whitewater swimming on the Gorge route, you can then tackle the advanced route, which is much more technical and longer (14 km, about 2 hours and 30 minutes in the water).
