I have one of the most
beautiful jobs in the world
Coming from a family of kayakers, it was around the age of 3 that I made my first attempts in a canoe. A few years later, the registration within the Canoe-Kayak club was made. Practice in competition followed. Motivated at the age of 16 by the desire to pass on my passion, I trained on a voluntary basis.
My attraction for outdoor sports then led me to follow four professional training courses to become a Sports Educator in outdoor sports.
Seasonal worker since I was 19, my professional experiences in several leisure bases have allowed me to acquire enough experience to hold a permanent position at the age of 24, for 5 years in Brittany.
If you want to know us better, I invite you to read our mission and our values below.
We look forward to welcoming you to our little bubble of nature and fun!

Our mission
In love with nature and rivers and wanting to live in a more favorable climate, I settled in Ariège in 2019. I discovered the river Hers-Vif there by kayak. This experience aroused the desire to make this magnificent natural place accessible to the general public.
The idea of starting my kayak rental business emerged. An evolving project was then born combining my skills, economic reality and my desire to share my love for canoeing and nature.
Naturokayarc identifies 4 elements that make up the company. The pun "naturo" refers to the ability to heal by nature, here precisely by the river.
The 2 words linked implies that the activities are intended to take care of yourself, to recharge your batteries through fun activities and in a natural environment that is a source of well-being.
Our values
Create caring human exchanges
We want to invite people into a bubble of nature, pleasant, human and if we go further: without judgment where we can share our emotions and our differences..
Give access to nature
The initial goal was born from the desire to make the river accessible to the general public, while respecting its environment.
Offer a quality service
The notion of time disappears on the water since the customer is not pressed for time and arrives when he wishes on arrival. To do this, we found land downstream of the course and invested in a sufficiently large fleet of kayaks.
Promote the human-animal relationship
Animals are welcome, including on board the kayak. Our activities promote the human-animal relationship. And they are nice memories for the practitioners and their animal.
Raising environmental awareness
This value is reflected in the fact of giving access to this natural place that is difficult to access without equipment, giving precise instructions on the expected behaviour (discretion on the river for fauna, leaving no trace of its passage), leaving with new knowledge of the environment.
