Nice cruise. Passing the dam was a bit hard, especially since there is no strap to pull the canoe. There is only a handle on the nose so you'll need a strong back.

Nous avons fait la sortie de 10km. Très agréable avec des jolies points de vue et beaucoup d’oiseaux croisés. Il est possible de s’arrêter à certains endroits pour pique niquer et on peut prendre le temps nécessaire pour cette sortie. Le passage avec le barrage est un peu compliqué car il faut le contourner à pied en portant le canoë. Départ depuis la « base » en minibus, l’organisateur nous emmène au point de départ en fonction de la distance choisie et on termine la sortie avec un retour à la base.

Le passage à effectuer dans lherbe est compliqué il aurait été sympa de mettre des rondins de bois tout le long afin de faciliter le déplacement de la barque qui est assez lourde
