Go canoeing on the Arve River from Chamonix and experience the thrill of nature in the heart of the Haute-Savoie!

Canorafting is an activity that is practiced on a boat designed for two people, under the supervision of a professional instructor. On board the canoraft, you and your partner will have to navigate the river's rapids using your paddles. Canorafting is much more fun than rafting! You will learn to steer your canoraft together and to recognise the different water movements. It is the ideal activity to do with friends or as a couple!

Your canoraft trip on the Arve River will start in Chamonix. First, you will be equipped with the necessary equipment and the safety instructions will be presented to you. You will then have the opportunity to experience 8 km of gliding between Passy and Sallanches, where the river is class 2, i.e. easy. Ideal for discovering canorafting, this descent of the Arve will take you through 6 medium level rapids, with large water movements.

Session Raft is the first white water sports base in the Mont-Blanc region and has been specialising in white water sports since 1982. Supervised by one of their professional guides, you will be in good hands to enjoy a fun time in a canoraft! For about 1 hour, you will go on the rapids of the Arve with your partner!

Chamonix-Mont-Blanc is the ideal place to go canoeing in Haute-Savoie. Indeed, the Arve is located only 800 meters from our partner's base. This torrential river of the Alps has its source in the Mont-Blanc massif and is the main river of Haute-Savoie. Your route will take you between the Grandes Jorasses, Tête à l'Âne and Mont-Blanc. In this mountainous and wild setting, you will enjoy magnificent views that you will not forget!

Don't wait any longer to experience the thrill of sliding with your partner in Haute-Savoie, book your canoe trip down the Arve from Chamonix!
