The Ardèche is a very outdoorsy area. Kayaking and cycling are the 2 main sports. We went down the river a 2nd time. This time it was just the 4 of us. We were able to start from the top and go 6 km to the first take out spot. To go the other 2 distance you either had to start very early or plan on camping on the way. The youngest person allowed to go in a rental kayak was 7 so now if you ask Sam how old he is he says....in France I'm 7!
It was much more crowded with much less water so it was a different trip. And hot so taking a dip in the river was a welcome pleasure. From the photos you can see how deep the gorge is and then there is a view of the most famous feature the Pont d'Arc from the upstream and downstream side. I tried to catch the crowd of boats going down this river in the middle photo.
