Enjoy an introduction to rafting on the Dranse riverwith this discovery tour, rated class II on a scale from I to VI. Anyone of 8 years or older can participate. You can start on calm rapids and choose to go on more tumultuous areas during your descent. The proximity to the Jura mountains and Lake Geneva will make this descent a real treasure for your eyes!
Tour programme- Preparation:
We start directly at our base in Thonon after putting on our high-quality equipment and getting to know the rest of the group.
- Tour:
Our starting point is located right next to the base and a short bus ride will allow you to get in the thick of it very quickly. We will then be on the Dranse for a refreshing hour with a touch of sporty rafting. We will even have the opportunity to swim directly in the currents.
- Arrival:
At the end of our adventure, we are lucky to be able to return to the base very quickly on foot to change clothes and talk about our experience!

It was a lot of fun. We did the easy descent as we were unexperienced. It was not too easy and not boring at all. We had an 10 year old with us. Hé wasn’t frightened at all but enjoyed it. And we had a cold swim in the river as well.
