DownHill in the Gorges du Tarn

I was this weekend at my grand parents home in the famous Gorges du Tarn, it's one of the best place in France and probably in Europe for the kayak touring.

It was an easy weekend the ass in the Tarn river and nothing to do all the day... well we already put our ass on a bike!!
We started early with Thibeault and Gautier from the farm of Boisset to the village of Sainte Enimie, one of the 100 most beautiful villages in France.

Here some of my photos:

Saint Pierre de Boeuf - summer 2009

Hello,

I work in Saint Pierre de Boeuf since mid June and we enjoyed the white water course everyday!!
What's better than a course where the water flows well, where the water is warm, where we can paddle freestyle, slalom... well, the place to be!!
