Details
The Dranse de Morzine river is a naturally sporty river absolutely loved by those looking for an activity that is different from the ordinary! This classic rafting tour guarantees 100% fun and pleasure and is perfect for families with teenagers or groups of friends.
Tour programme- Preparation:
Halfway between Thonon-les-Bains and Morzine, our base is our meeting point. Our base provides you with lockers and changing rooms, where you can switch from your clothes to neoprene suits and slippers, your charming rafting outfit. Your guide will then give you some details on the course before taking you to the Dranse aboard our shuttle.
- Tour:
The course which awaits you is 7.5-km long and will see you sail for almost one hour and a half. The tumultuous Dranse river will welcome you as it should from the start, with the passage of the S rapids shortly after the start of the journey. The “passage de l'escalier” (literally, the stairs passage) and the “passage de la pile” (which translates as the stack passage) are also there along this descent which hosted an event of the Canoe Kayak World Cup. The guides will give you some time to enjoy the swimming experience in this beautiful river before finishing the activity.
- Return:
The way back will be made with our shuttle, which will bring you back quickly to the base. You will find your belongings and will be able to rest and eat a little at the bar-restaurant in order to regain your strength after these sporty hours!
