点评:Having been to come through Brantome and seen what a beautiful place it was and the canoes/kayaks trying to get over the weirs and chute - we booked with Allo Canoes for a couple of days later.
It's a fairly basic operation - we went for the 8km/2hour journey. You pay your 15 Euros each and are issued with a paddle and buoyancy aid, you then jump on the bus which takes you to the launch. It was quite busy, so we waited until last for our group of 12 - which meant for almost the entire trip we had the river to ourselves.
The give some fairly basic instructions in English - but it's not very complicated. Basically paddle toward Brantome - where there are two weirs to slide down. It is an unaccompanied trip - so you just get slid into the water and get paddling.
My only word of warning is that you are likely to get wet - possibly slightly damp, potentially soaked through. The river is never very deep, and at places is very very shallow. The 8km is an easy paddle too - we took longer than 2 hours - mainly as we let the kids go together and they spent their time zig-zagging down the river.
The town itself is beautiful, and gets quite busy, you'll likely have a small crowd watching you trying to navigate the town weir and the small chute over the second weir. We had one person get out and help the others over the weirs. I'd recommend water shoes or old trainers on your feet.
Over all great days fun for all of us.
翻译:去过布朗托姆,看到那是一个多么美丽的地方,独木舟/皮划艇试图越过堰和滑道——我们在几天后向 Allo Canoes 预订了住宿。
这是一个相当基本的操作 - 我们进行了 8 公里/2 小时的旅程。您每人支付 15 欧元,并获得桨和浮力辅助装置,然后您跳上巴士前往发射点。天气非常繁忙,所以我们等到了我们一行 12 人的最后——这意味着几乎整个旅程我们都独享这条河。
他们用英语提供了一些相当基本的说明 - 但并不是很复杂。基本上是划向布兰托姆(Brantome) - 那里有两个堰可以滑下来。这是一次无人陪伴的旅行 - 所以您只需滑入水中并划桨即可。
我唯一要警告的是,你很可能会被淋湿——可能会稍微潮湿,甚至可能会全身湿透。这条河从来都不是很深,有些地方还很浅。 8公里也很容易划桨——我们花了两个多小时——主要是因为我们让孩子们一起去,他们沿着河蜿蜒而下。
小镇本身很美丽,而且非常繁忙,你可能会有一小群人看着你试图穿过小镇堰和第二个堰上的小滑道。我们让一个人出去帮助其他人越过堰。我建议您穿水鞋或旧运动鞋。
整个美好的日子对我们所有人来说都很有趣。
