    • Canoe 2000, a unique experience in the Tarn Gorges

      Open your eyes wide to appreciate the beauty of this magnificent setting ! Located in Malène, in the heart of the Cévennes National Park and 40 km from the Millau Viaduct, the Canoë 2000 water sports center invites you on an unforgettable descent of the Tarn River. Park in the private parking lot and join the team at the base and reception area under the bridge, the starting point for a wonderful day out with family or friends.


      Canoe 2000, canoe trips suitable for everyone in the Tarn Gorges

      Forget the stress, canoeing is a fun and sporty activity accessible to young and old alike, whether you're a beginner or an experienced paddler. Grab your paddles, our passionate instructors offer several options for you to enjoy:

      • An introductory discovery tour of the Straits, or an unforgettable experience facing splendid landscapes
      • A short or long day paddling along the most beautiful villages of the Tarn Gorges, punctuated by visits and swimming
      • A multi-day hike with services tailored to allow you to relax and enjoy the experience.

      You'll love gliding along the water, admiring the magnificent scenery unfolding before your eyes between cliffs, waterfalls, and wild areas. Keep your eyes peeled; you might even spot a beaver or a vulture !


      Canoe 2000: passionate professionals and numerous activities

      Since 1986, the Canoë 2000 team has been delighted to introduce you to the incredible Tarn Gorges through a fun and sporty canoe trip that's 100% nature and 100% enjoyment. Modern, high-quality equipment allows you to descend the river safely, departing from a water sports center that is a member of the Canoë France group and the FNPLCK (National Professional Federation of Canoe Rental Companies). Discover the most beautiful straits in France ; book your canoe trip between Easter and All Saints' Day. Thrill -seekers will find plenty of variety at Canoë 2000, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Paddleboarding, caving, canyoning, or via ferrata —you'll be spoiled for choice when it comes to having fun alone or with others in the Tarn Gorges during the warmer months.

      For a more comfortable stopover, Canoe 2000 suggests you book one of our three cottages in Rocheflamme, La Malène, which can accommodate 5 to 10 people.

      For a total and complete visit of this fabulous jewel that is the Gorges du Tarn, 2 other bases are accessible: Canöé Mejean and Aqua Loisirs.

    J'adore faire du canoë, il y a toujours un accueil sympathique, ici ça n'est pas le cas ( sauf en haut) zone dangereuse, sans paneau, au moulin de la malene que l'on voit au dernier moment, et mal expliquer au briefing.

    À éviter. Nous sommes le 1er juillet ( avant la haute saison) et déjà traités comme du bétail. Aucun conseil technique, des informations approximatives pour ne pas dire erronées. Le personnel ne connait pas les parcours. Ils vous vendront les plus long en n omettant pas de vous dire de pointer au milieu et que si c est trop tard, vous ne pourrez pas continuer. Il n y a aucun courant donc les parcours de 20 km sont à éviter sauf si vous êtes très entraînés. On vous donnera des rames aléatoirement ( une rame se choisit en fonction de la taille de l individu) et si vous le demandez on vous envoie balader. Il y a de nombreux loueurs de canoë, n hésitez pas à aller voir ailleurs.

  • "Lovely day on the water"

    5 / 5 Reviews posted by JonathanJ370 (Glasgow, United Kingdom) on 02/08/2023

    A really well run and organised day. Not the greatest of weather (overcast and a small amount of rain) but the scenery was magnificent and it was warm. Would definitely do it again.
