A group of independent Ardèche instructors, to ensure a safe, local adventure.

Ardèche Outdoor Activities - Aventures Nature et Passion en Ardèche Ardèche Outdoor Activités is a group of independent instructors from the Ardèche who are passionate about their region and deeply attached to the wilderness of the Ardèche. Based in the heart of the southern Ardèche, this friendly structure is run by Franck Fluteau, a state-qualified instructor and native of Ruoms, a true local boy who knows every cliff, river and canyon in the region like the back of his hand. Our team is made up of qualified and experienced professionals, all driven by the same spirit: to help you discover the natural wealth of the Ardèche through outdoor activities accessible to all. We offer supervised outings in canyoning, climbing, via ferrata, via corda, caving and canoeing, in a safe, friendly and environmentally-friendly environment. At Ardèche Outdoor Activities, every adventure is an opportunity to share our passion for nature, and to pass on our knowledge of the fauna, flora and exceptional geological heritage of the Ardèche. We make it a point of honor to promote local practices, to encourage participants' progressive autonomy and to foster kindness, humility and respect for the natural environment. Our outings are designed to suit all levels: from the curious beginner looking for a first experience, to the experienced adventurer wishing to challenge himself on more technical routes. As a family, with friends or in a group, everyone can find their own tailor-made adventure and enjoy an authentic human and sporting experience. Our approach is based on simple, essential values: Safety: supervision by state-certified instructors who are attentive to each participant's needs. Conviviality: a warm, relaxed atmosphere, far removed from mass tourism. Respect for nature: responsible practices, with a constant concern for preserving natural environments. Sharing and transmission: a teaching approach based on discovery, mutual aid and trust. With Ardèche Outdoor Activities, discover the canyons of the Chassezac, the limestone cliffs of southern Ardèche, secret caves, or canoe down emblematic rivers. Each activity is an invitation to experience Ardèche nature to the full, feel the energy of the place and create unforgettable memories.
