Discovery Rafting on the Rhône River

Rafting doesn't always mean impetuous rapids and capsizing, proof being with our three discovery itineraries on the Rhône. They will introduce you to this whitewater activity in complete tranquillity. This calm and reassuring route can be enjoyed from 6 years old and is ideal for an outing with friends or family. You will paddle while having fun under the benevolent and watchful eye of your certified instructor, who directs the boat. Our rafts equipped to embark crews up to 15 people are adapted to experience maximum thrills, manoeuvrability and safety.
