This summer, come and discover the wide range of activities on offer, either in white waters, to cool off, relax or get a rush of adrenaline! As a family or with friends, make the most of the stunning destination of Morzine with its beautiful lakes and rivers.
1-Swimming in Montriond lake
To begin with a refreshing dip surrounded by stunning scenery, there’s no better a place than Montriond lake. Walk around this incredible lake surrounded by fir trees and mountains to find the ideal spot to relax and go for a dip in the water.<br>And if you’d like to see a bit more, venture further onto the lake, there are canoes, kayaks and paddleboards available so you can glide across the lake at your own pace.<br>If you go along the footpath through the forest, you can walk to Ardent waterfall and the viewpoint overlooking the lake down below.
2-Canyoning in Morzine
Canyoning is a water-based sport and a great way to explore the natural environment. It involves making your way down mountain rivers on foot with special equipment (wetsuit, helmet, harness, ropes, etc.). The mountain rivers have shaped the rock and created waterfalls, slides and gorges that are just waiting to be explored. Depending on the conditions for your chosen outing, you will be either simply walking, sliding, or swimming down the river, and then climbing when you come to any uphill sections!
Canyoning in Morzine is suitable for everyone as long as you can swim, you’ll learn the rest, including the basic techniques, during the outing.
So what are you waiting for? Come and try canyoning and enjoy your very own crazy adventure.
3-Rafting in Morzine
Just like canyoning, rafting is also a sport that takes place in a mountain river, but this time you’ll be in a raft. Equipped with a paddle, you and your group will be hurtling down the river and through the rapids. When you pass through the rapids, you’ll get a sudden rush of adrenaline (and refreshing splash of water!) as your sense of coordination and team spirit are put to the test.
This is a perfect activity for families or groups of friends… Everyone climb aboard !
4-Riverboarding in Morzine
For this activity, you’ll also be making your way down the river, but in a very different way. You’ll be provided a riverboard, fins and a wetsuit, to then take on the various currents down the river. This is an enjoyable and technical group activity if you’re looking to have great fun and get a real rush of adrenaline!
The professional instructors will guide you and show you how to swim in the rapids, glide over the waves, and you might even get the chance to see what it’s like to surf on a raft.
So if the summer is all about the water for you, how about spending your holiday in Morzine ?
