Kayak rental
Our kayak trips invite you to fully enjoy the gifts of nature, but also the benefits and serenity of this activity in family.
As the Aube river progresses, you will be able to take time for nice breaks on the beaches to cool off on hot days. You will bathe in a calm river which will delight young and old.
In the shade of its trees, you will discover great ecological wealth. Between the roots of the trees, the plants that grow on the banks and in the water, you can observe all the flora of the Aube.
These trees and plants provide perfect homes for the animal species that inhabit Aube. Carp, perch or even barbots will accompany you during your canoe trip. You may also see some crayfish and amphibians.
Looking up you may observe some protected bird species. So, as they take flight, you will have the chance to admire a kingfisher, a long-tailed tit or a black swift.
Beyond discovering these gems, our kayak trips on the Aube will offer you wonderful moments of relaxation. This activity will also allow you to experience memorable moments of conviviality with family or friends.
Sport Dienville therefore invites you to enjoy the benefits of kayaking on the Aube and discover its jewels.
Thus, we offer 3 courses of different lengths. Lasting approximately 1h30, 2h30 and 4h, they will allow you to navigate along the water and take advantage of the many points where you can stop for a picnic or a snack, but also to relax and swim in the Aube.
According to your desires, you can enjoy serenely, following its course, the rich fauna and the diverse flora of the river.
Bike rental
During your journey, you will discover the richness of the flora and fauna of our region. This exceptional ornithological site will allow you to observe small and large wading birds. You can admire the main species that inhabit the lake and its surroundings: the swan, the great egret, the osprey, the mallard, the great crested grebe or the gray heron.
In the forest, you will ride peacefully in the shelter of oaks, hornbeam, alder ash and ash willow. By stopping at the Henri Pavilion, a wooden chalet on the edge of the national forest, you can also observe the plants and mushrooms that grow in the area.
You can also take the time to stop to admire the built and religious heritage typical of our region. You will therefore discover, in Dienville, the Treasury of the Churches of the Regional Natural Park in the church open every day. Also, you can see the Halles which once hosted fairs. Finally, in Mathaux, you will contemplate the very beautiful half-timbered church.
Sport Dienville therefore offers day or half-day bike rental to discover our region. You will be able to explore the calm and generous nature on two marked and secure circuits.
We can offer you many routes according to your desires that will satisfy your desires of escape and nature. Between forests and lakes, rivers and villages, we will never cease to amaze you.
