Natural Games 2009



This major outdoor’s sports event took place, for the second time in Millau (south of France).
A large scale of activities was represented in the area, such as rock climbing, paragliding, down hill mountain biking, kayaking, and slaklining.





















It was four days of competitions and every night, competitors and spectators were meeting altogether for different shows such as live concerts, demonstrations (sack-line, dirt, etc…) and other contests. The athlete’s village hosted almost 20 000 for the Saturday night party.



The freestyle’s kayak contest set on the artificial channel of the Tarn River.
The competition was awesome!!! A lot of people were on the bank enjoying a great show and if all the person doesn’t fully understand the rules of freestyle kayaking, however, everybody clapped their hand when they looked a kayaker doing a massive trick. It was an incredible atmosphere, the music, the sun and the spectators pushed the kayakers to their limits.












Finally, this second edition of the Natural Games proved that it’s possible to organise an event which is gathering a lot of outdoors activities, athletes, beginners and spectators.

Congratulations !!!
