CANORAFT ON THE DRANSE IN HAUTE-SAVOIE
Why go canorafting on the Dranse ❓
Firstly, because Haute-Savoie allows you to enjoy the lake and the mountains in the same day, and secondly, because the Dranse is a river full of vegetation and rocky outcrops for an invigorating moment of relaxation in the middle of the spray.
In pairs, we suggest you climb aboard this two-seater inflatable boat for an atmospheric descent.
An original, sporting and educational activity to share as a couple, with friends or family 🥰

Frequently Asked Questions
It’s an activity that involves paddling down part of a river in an inflatable boat, either solo or in pairs. The canoraft is a subtle blend of rafting and canoeing that allows you to cross rapids. Its unsinkability, stability and simplified approach to white-water techniques mean you can enjoy the river to the full.
Larousse definition: masculine noun, “Break in the longitudinal profile of a watercourse, determined by the existence of a threshold of hard rock between less resistant land. (Often plural.)”.
To put it simply: a rapid is created by a greater difference in level of the river over a given stretch or by a narrowing of the riverbed which creates an acceleration of the water through the venturi effect. The strong turbulence creates air bubbles that give the river a white colour.
It’s not a particularly sporting activity, but it’s a demanding one. You’ll come out of it feeling like you’ve spent an hour in the pool. The river alternates between calm stretches and more agitated passages. The guides in the team are there to adapt to your level and your desires!
Our descent is accessible from 14 years old.
Just a swimming costume and a towel. We’ll take care of the rest! Oh yes, we will need you to bring your smile too! 😄
