Team Building in the Basque Country

Seminar, team cohesion & incentive in the heart of nature

Strengthen your team's cohesion with a day of adventure on the Nive! Since 1991, Ur Bizia has accompanied companies in organizing unforgettable team buildings in the heart of the Basque Country, between mountains and river.

A natural setting ideal for your seminar

The Basque Country offers an exceptional backdrop to step out of the professional context and create lasting bonds between colleagues. The Nive valley, just 30 minutes from Biarritz, is a unique playground for memorable team activities.

Descending the rapids together, pushing yourselves collectively, sharing laughter... white water activities are a wonderful vector for team cohesion. Each activity mobilizes communication, trust and mutual support.

Our nautical base in Bidarray has changing rooms, showers, and a private picnic area for your group — ideal for combining activity and a pleasant moment together.

Our team building activities

Compose your custom program from our activities, which can be combined for a half-day or full day:

Rafting — The essential team building activity. In teams of 8 in the raft, communication and coordination are essential to navigate the rapids. Team-building and accessible to all from age 6.
Hydrospeed — The individual challenge within the group. Everyone descends the Nive swimming with their flotation device. Ideal for personal challenge and solidarity among colleagues.
Mini Raft — In teams of 3 to 5, without a guide on board: leadership, decision-making and team spirit on the agenda. Perfect for organizing challenges between departments!
Inflatable Canoe — In pairs, coordination is key. An activity that reveals the most complementary duos in the company.
Packraft — Solo, each person pilots their own craft. Autonomy in the group's support — a good parallel with professional life.
