Activity description
On this thrilling whitewater adventure near Verbier, you and your team will conquer the river Dranse in the Chablais Alps. The name Dranse comes from the Celtic language and means "torrent" – so be prepared for an action-packed day on the river with an adrenaline guarantee!
But first, you are going to meet your personal guide for this tour at the meeting point in Sembrancher (15 mins by bus from Martigny) or at the meeting point defined with your instructors after booking.
