From Ilanz to Reichenau, the Rhine is a beautiful river. The famous Swiss Grand Canyon is one of Switzerland’s most popular courses.

The school run starts in Ilanz. The students, helmets screwed on, climb into the rafts. The Rhine soon took them with it. They paddle hard, motivated by adventure. Rapids after rapids, water splashing over everyone.
Then the landscape changes. The Swiss Grand Canyon reveals itself, majestic and impressive. The cliffs rise up on either side. The current becomes stronger. The rafts weave between the rocks. The students scream, torn between fear and excitement.
What’s more, the guides give precise instructions. You have to paddle hard to avoid obstacles. Every landing is a challenge. Everyone stays focused. Gradually, the river widens. The waters are calming slightly.
Finally, the students arrive in Reichenau. Delighted, the students applaud their rafting guide. This descent will remain unforgettable. The Swiss Grand Canyon offered a breathtaking spectacle. The adventure ends, but the memories remain.

For a school outing, rafting on the Sarine is the perfect activity

Raft down from Saanen to Les Moulins. A remarkable route, including the Gérignoz and Vanel gorges

The school outing starts in Saanen. The students climb into the rafts, excited and ready to paddle. They were soon swept away by the Sarine. They enthusiastically make their way down to Les Moulins. They are constantly being jostled by whitewater.
Then the famous Gorges de Gérignoz appear. This passage is narrow and spectacular. The walls are getting tighter. The water accelerates, the waves deepen. The rafts are pitching. Students laugh and scream with adrenaline.
However, it’s important to stay focused. One obstacle follows another. The guides direct the crews with precision. Every stroke counts. Rocks roll by to the left and right of the rafts. Finally, after some intense moments, the river calms down.
The class arrives at Les Moulins, a little tired but happy. This descent will remain engraved in our memories. The beauty of the Gorges de Gérignoz and the adventure on the Sarine won over all the students.
