The Figueras is one of the many rapids that punctuate the course of the Ardèche. This one is special, as it marks the exit of the spectacular Cirque de Gaud. It is one of the most grandiose sites in the Ardèche gorges. You will never get tired of watching the kayakers go swimming in spite of themselves. And besides, do not hesitate to find them in the water to refresh yourself.

Great swimming spot and a nice spot to watch the paddlers battle the rapids
