Hiking and Packrafting → The Ultimate Outdoor Adventure in France

Hiking + Packrafting: the ultimate outdoor adventure in France

What if you added a touch of aquatic exploration to your hikes? Thanks to packrafting, nomadic travel takes on a whole new dimension. Lightweight, compact, and ultra-versatile, this small inflatable kayak (around 4 kg) easily fits into your backpack to transform a simple hike into an unforgettable multi-sport adventure.

With over 180,000 km of marked trails, France is an exceptional playground. And on almost every route, you'll cross a watercourse, a lake, or a coastline. The perfect opportunity to alternate walking and paddling to experience nature in a different way.

From the cliffs of Cotentin to the Alpine peaks, from the Breton forests to the Corsican coves, each region reveals its share of spectacular landscapes to explore by bikerafting or hiking-packrafting.
