Frequently asked questions

What's the most intense moment on the Arve?
The strongest rapids hit mid-run, when the Arve river volume peaks from glacial meltwater. That's where the raft accelerates and paddlers take the most spray. Expect it roughly halfway through your 2.5h to 3.5h session.
Do you need prior rafting experience?
No. The physicalLevel for this tour is listed as 'Everybody welcome', meaning zero experience is required. Your guide from Rafting Loisirs will brief the group on paddle commands and safety before you hit the water.
Is 99.19 CHF the only cost to budget for?
That's the full listed price per person. Check directly with Rafting Loisirs for any optional extras like photos or transport, which are not included in the base price.
What's the best time of year to run the Arve?
The season runs May through September. Late spring and early summer bring higher water levels from snowmelt in the Mont Blanc massif, which typically means faster currents and a more intense ride.
