Discover the magnificent river Dranse with a thrilling canoe rafting descent

Come and try hydrospeed with the pros of AN Rafting who will help you discover the magnificent Dranse river!

The Dranse is one of the nearest whitewater rivers from Geneva and Lausanne.

It's ideal to learn the basics of kicking and swimming in white water which are the basics of hydrospeed. You'll use a buoy to help you manage your direction and stay afloat as you pass the numerous rapids of the river!

You will use the shuttles from the center to reach the pontoon. From there, you'll go down the rapids which are accessible for all levels and your itinerary brings you back to the center. The water is quite cool (between 7 and 8 degrees throughout the summer season), but no worries! You wear a wetsuit and the ambiant air is warm so your swim will be a relief!
