Yellow Rafting
Rafting and hydrospeeding specialists in Chamonix
Enjoy an exciting introduction to white water sports this summer with Mickaël and the passionate team. Whether you are looking for adrenaline or a fun outdoor experience with friends or family, several activities are available on some of the most beautiful rivers in the region.
On the Arve in Chamonix and Passy, try rafting, hydrospeed, canoraft, or airboat. These routes are ideal for beginners and offer spectacular views of Mont Blanc while you navigate the river. For those looking for something different, you can also head to the Dranse near Thonon-les-Bains, considered one of the most beautiful rivers in Haute-Savoie, or even the Dora Baltea on the Italian side for a more challenging adventure.
Stand up paddle is also available for a more relaxed experience. Discover the sport during a fun morning session on Lake Passy in a stunning natural setting, or enjoy a full-day paddle excursion on Lake Annecy or Lake Geneva, surrounded by spectacular scenery.
With options suitable for beginners, families, groups of friends, and special occasions such as birthdays or stag and hen parties, these activities are a great way to enjoy the mountains and rivers of the region in summer.
