Najac

AAGAC : Canoë / Kayak

The Aveyron, between Monteils and Laguépie, flows through magnificent wooded Gorges. Canoeing is one of the few ways to truly appreciate the beauty of these wild Gorges. The river is made up of numerous rapids accessible to all.

Depending on your technical level and the current water conditions, we will advise you on the choice of the course best suited to your level.

THE SHORT TOUR OF NAJAC (6 km – 2 hours)

This is the classic Aveyron Gorges route! The Petit Tour de Najac offers a 6km descent in about 2 hours, perfect for families or groups of friends, all year round. This fun and engaging trip is highly appreciated for its four specially designed rapids (stairs, slide, wave, slalom pool), as well as its splendid views of the Najac Fortress and the village itself. In summer, this route is often the only navigable one on this part of the Aveyron River.

The age of access to this route varies depending on the period and hydrological conditions: generally from 6 years old in the summer and 12 years old in case of high water level.

THE BODY OF WATER (2km – 1h)

From the age of 3, children can discover canoeing (2 or 3-seater) or kayaking (1-seater) on flat water. Accompanied by an adult, this 1-kilometer round trip on the water offers an approximately one-hour canoe or kayak excursion. Enjoy views of Najac and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Aveyron Gorges.
