Wild swims in river
The River Drôme
River Drôme
With its warmer water, the Drôme is spreading, taking things nice and easy . You may get the impression that you are on a beach but one with no sand and no crowds.
You can swim or jump into deep waterholes called “gours”, you can get tanned on the beach while keeping an eye on the children splashing about .Their little hands will skilfully skip stones on the river. You can let yourself be drifted away by the water flow, let your eyes follow multicoloured canoes paddling their way along the river, have a picnic, read or doze off. In other words, enjoy an unforgettable summer time…
Going to a river for a wild swim requires concern as you have to interact with other different people like sportsmen, swimmers, fishermen, observers etc and also as those matchless places have to be preserved.
