Frequently asked questions

What's the most intense moment on the Gave d'Ossau?
The Gave d'Ossau is a Pyrenean glacial river, which means current levels and rapid intensity vary with snowmelt. Peak flows in May and June typically push the hardest sections, so booking early in the season puts you on faster water.
Do you need rafting experience to join this trip?
No prior experience is required. The physical level is rated "Occasionally sporty", meaning you'll face genuine effort and real rapids, but the guides from Aventure Chlorophylle lead you through technique before you hit the water.
How long is the actual time on the river?
The total session runs between 3.5 and 5.5 hours, which includes briefing, gearing up and the run itself. Expect the time on water to vary depending on river conditions on the day.
Is 55 € the full price or a deposit?
55 € is the full listed price per person for the rafting session. Confirm what's included, such as wetsuit and helmet rental, directly with Aventure Chlorophylle at the time of booking.
