Itinerary description

Départ du Pont Sous-Terre à la Jonction et arrivée à Aire-la-Ville. Possibilité de laisser la voiture sur le parking de Aire-la-Ville.

Ca nous a pris 3 heures car nous nous sommes laissé descendre quasiment sans ramer, Il y pleins d'autres endroit pour terminer la descente, notamment à Vernier à mi-chemin.

Il n'y a aucun rapide donc c'est une descente facile et parfait pour prendre l'air et se détendre tout en appréciant la végétation.

    That's a very nice way to escape from the city and enjoy a completely different view of the surrounding area! The river is very calm and the current is minimal. So, it's safe for beginners and you need to paddle quite a lot. However, the route is short and relaxing. We made it in three hours too.

    Thanks a lot for sharing it!

    I have done pretty much same itinerary, easy and really nice scenery, watch out protected area for wild life, be smooth .. the stream not strong thus going upfront flow not difficut all the way up to the " jonction ". some place you can stop by and have quick lunch on your own. Thanks for having posted this GPX trace,
