Our take
Everything is on the same site at the Pont de l'Europe: rafting on an artificial river, canoeing on the Allier, and 10,000 m² of forest for paintball. Five minutes from the centre of Vichy.
Paintball, rafting and canoe-kayak on the Allier, at the Pont de l'Europe in Vichy.
Vichy Aventure occupies the Pont de l'Europe site, on the banks of the Allier, five minutes from the centre of Vichy. Everything is in one place: rafting on the artificial river, canoe trips on the Allier, mountain biking, bubble football and paintball.
Paintball is played on 10,000 m² in the middle of the forest, split into two fields, from age 8. Allow €25 for the 250-ball package for about 1 hour 30 of play, €30 for 400 balls for 2 hours, €40 for 600 balls for 3 hours. Under-12s play for 1 hour 30 for €20.
It's an outdoor activity: opening times shift with the weather and the season, so it's best to call before you set out.
Why we love it
- Rafting on the Allier's artificial river
- Paintball 100% in the forest, on 2 fields
Top tip
Book in July and August, when sessions fill up. Family rate for groups of 4 or more. Easy to combine with the Parc des Sources, 5 minutes away.
