School outings in the Basque Country
White water activities for classes and recreation centers
Give your students an unforgettable school outing on the Nive! Since 1991, Ur Bizia has welcomed primary, middle and high school classes for white water activities supervised by state-certified guides, in compliance with French Education Ministry safety standards.
A pedagogical project in the heart of nature
Rafting and water activities develop essential cross-curricular skills: cooperation, mutual support, stress management, self-confidence and trust in others. The natural setting of the Nive valley in Bidarray is a unique learning environment.
We can adapt the educational content in connection with your class project (Science, PE, Geography, Sustainable Development...).
