Mini-Raft Trip - Take on the Giffre River and its rapids on your own!

Are you a small group of athletes looking to take on a challenge together?
With the mini-raft, come try your hand at steering a boat through whitewater! Coordination, communication, and physical effort are all part of the adventure for athletes!

Dive into the heart of Haute-Savoie, starting from Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval and heading to Samoëns, to explore the picturesque Gorges des Tines... Maybe you’ve already tried rafting and are ready for more?
Come try rafting’s little brother: the “mini-raft”!

These 3- or 4-person boats let you navigate semi-independently (the guide will be with you but in his own boat).
A physical challenge that relies on the participants working together! One of you will take on the role of “steersman” and steer the boat while the others provide the power by paddling!

A 7-kilometer descent where you’ll get to experience a lightweight group boat. You’ll need to rely on one another and synchronize your strokes to take on the Giffre and its rapids!
There’s no way to lean on the other participants. You’ll need each other to stay on course. The scenery? Yes, it’s beautiful! But you’ll have your eyes fixed on the water’s movements to spot the lines to follow... Another way to discover this beautiful part of our region.

The guide’s briefing will teach you some basics of reading the river and navigation techniques before you “take the plunge”.

Don’t wait any longer—pick up the phone and reserve your raft!

Required gear: a swimsuit, a pair of athletic shoes (like sneakers)

Tip: Remove all jewelry (including wedding rings)

In the early season, when the entire route isn’t fully navigable by mini-raft, we offer a “multi-sport” itinerary. You’ll navigate the gorges by raft—with the guide steering the boat—and continue the rest of the route by mini-raft.
