This idylic river can be travelled straight from ruoms to souze passing straight through the gigantic national reserve area and through the Pont D’Arc a stunning cliff face which the river passes straight through. This river has rapids of all levels and plenty of information on how to get through the hardest ones.

You can even extend your visit even further by travelling from Vouge and staying over in one of the many camps along the way. You will need to stay the night at the national reserve camps (for a small fee from the local national reserve office in town) while traveling through the national reserve as it is a very long trip. However, you will be pleased to learn that they have barbeques for hire, toilets and showers and lots of camping space.

The tower stands tall at an impressive 324 meters high and receives a new lick of paint every seven years and it takes around 15 months to finish the paint job. The paint colour used on this impressive structure is actually called “Tour Eiffel brown” and is used in three separate shades with the lightest shade at the top and the darkest shade at the bottom. The Eiffel tower was listed as an historical monument in 1964 and has the names of 72 scientists engraved on it.
