      With NCKD: Adrenaline and nature on the Nive

      An unforgettable rafting trip awaits you in Itxassou, in the heart of the Basque Country. The Nive River offers an ideal playground for rafting, a fun and accessible water activity for everyone. With NCKD, navigate the Pas de Roland gorges in Itxassou. Thrill- seekers and lovers of unspoiled nature can embark on a memorable descent. The rapids, alternating between calm stretches and more dynamic sections, allow for total immersion in a wild and verdant landscape.


      An activity suitable for all levels

      Whether it's for a family outing, a bachelor/bachelorette party, or a corporate retreat, rafting on the Nive River is suitable for everyone. Thanks to its experience, NCKD offers each group personalized guidance and advice tailored to their skill level. Various routes are available for both beginners and the more adventurous, allowing you to tackle the Nive's rapids with aquatic challenges (jumps, swimming in the current, passing under waterfalls, and a rodeo) in addition to the boating itself, discovering this charming and family-friendly river.


      An exceptional natural setting in the Basque Country

      The Nive River meanders between the verdant hills and lush forests of the Basque Country, offering an immersive experience close to nature. This unique setting appeals to both whitewater enthusiasts and those seeking tranquility. Throughout the descent, rafters enjoy breathtaking views of the Basque mountains and their local flora and fauna.


      Book your rafting adventure with NCKD

      For an unmissable water activity in the Basque Country, rafting with NCKD is the perfect option. Equipment is provided, and safety is ensured by experienced professionals. Booking a rafting session guarantees a day full of excitement, combining sport, nature, and camaraderie.


      Other fun and accessible boats for everyone

      Come and try mini-rafting, canoe-rafting or kayak-rafting, self-guided, with the guide within paddling distance. Ideal activities for discovering the river and testing yourself against it, whether it's calm or turbulent.

      The inflatable structure ensures comfort and forgiveness while navigating. Whether you're on your own, work as a team, designate the most experienced person, or draw straws to be the helmsman, you're all in the same boat.

      Chef's suggestion : To test team spirit. Mutiny is severely punished, but between you and me, I'll turn a blind eye. In groups, mix up the fleet, test different equipment, and multiply the challenges.

    We organized a 2.5-hour kayaking rafting trip at the end of October. It was a great experience for me, who had previously done river kayaking, and for my friend, a novice. Great scenery, great sensations, photos taken, and it was super easy to come from Bayonne directly by TER to the meeting point.

    A great outing with Jakes, who took the time to explain kayak rafting to us. I recommend it if you're looking for a trip on the Nive.
