Details
Discover the Pays d'Enhaut on the white waters of the Sarine. The river has carved its way through the rock and offers you a technical yet rather easy and surprising rafting tour in a narrow and magnificent setting. From 12, alone or with family or friends, you will admire the wild and preserved gorges of Vanel and Gérignoz, which guarantee us an unforgettable outing. During the tour, you will be accompanied by a qualified instructor who will give rhythm to the descent and ensure your safety so you can have fun without fear.
Tour programme
- Preparation:
We welcome you at the camping in Château d’Oex or at the meeting point determined individually after the booking, where we present and explain the activity. Then, the equipment will be provided and you have time to get changed. When you are ready, we will transport you to the starting point, which takes us 1 0min by bus.
- Tour:
There, a safety briefing awaits you, after which we will finally begin our white water descent. During the course, calmer areas alternate with more dynamic ones where you have to paddle harder. Your instructor always advises you on when you have to paddle for maximum fun.
- Return:
Once we reach the arrival point, we're just a minute away from our meeting point.
