Among the water parks in and around Paris are inflatable water courses, which are proliferating all over France and now even in the Paris region. If you're on vacation in Paris, or if you're not leaving (yet), here's an activity that should please the whole family or your gang of friends.
As well as being a great activity for team building or an original birthday party, it's also a great way to have fun without suffering from the heatwave. So wake up your inner Koh Lanta Claude or Clémence, or your Ninja Warrior in accessible mode, and get out there to test your balance, challenge your friends and jump into the water.
If you're not familiar with the concept, you may be wondering how it works. We start by choosing the timing, which usually ranges from 30 minutes to the whole day, but we generally recommend 1 hour for the most fun. You then put on a compulsory lifejacket, which keeps you afloat in the event of a fall.
The platform is then reached, usually by swimming, and the aim of the manoeuvre is to stay on it without slipping too much! There's a whole range of different courses to choose from, with many different obstacles depending on the structure. Most of the time, you'll find logs to cross, climbing curves, pyramids, monkey bridges, walls with climbing holds, trampolines, towers of varying heights with slides or diving boards, and even catapults for jumping thanks to the weight of your friends.
Let's face it, you often fall in the water, and if you don't, your friends and family will make sure you do. But don't worry, you're floating on the one hand, but various points allow you to get back on the structures easily. Otherwise, just call your friends to give you a hand from anywhere.
So, how about a water park on the water without leaving Paris?
