The Loire River

Cruising along the river.

The Loire is the last remaining wild river in Europe and the longest river in France. It stretches over 1,020 km (about 635 miles). The Loire is said to be wild because its bed is made up of sand, which makes it very difficult to navigate.

ABOUT 

US ?

Je m’appelle Patrick Chatre, natif de Briennon, j’ai vécu toute mon enfance dans la commune et la région où j’ai parcouru tous les chemins, les bords de Loire et du canal. J’y ai pratiqué la pêche, le vélo et la baignade dans la Loire.

Je suis un passionné de sport en tout genre et particulièrement nautique.  C’est tout naturellement qu’un jour je me suis acheté mon premier kayak en fibre de verre afin de parcourir la Loire régulièrement et découvrir la beauté du paysage, sa faune et sa flore.

Après 30 ans de travail en entreprise et un licenciement économique, un changement de vie s’est imposé. Il a fallu me réinventer et penser à une nouvelle activité.

Amoureux de la nature, de la Loire et de ces descentes en canoë, il m’est alors venu l’envie de le partager et transmettre ma passion…

Avec mon épouse nous avons ainsi créé CANOË LOIRE AVENTURE il y a plus de 15 ans…

Cette aventure nous ravit de saisons en saisons où nous avons le plaisir de vous retrouver et vous permettre de découvrir cette discipline en toute simplicité et ouverte à tous.
