Stand Up Paddleboarding

Join us for your free Stand-Up Paddleboarding or Kayaking session on the beautiful mountain lakes in Morzine and Tignes. Included in our Active Packs, these sessions are a fantastic way to enjoy the stunning alpine scenery — and are even better when paired with one of our walking or biking itineraries.

Many people can’t explain why they get so addicted to Paddleboarding. For some, it’s the ‘feel good’ factor of a core workout, for others it is the feeling of peace they get from this ‘soulful art of walking on water’. 

Paddleboarding is even better when paired with one of our Route Card itineraries, whether you choose a scenic bike ride or a leisurely walk that leads you past the lake. It’s the perfect spot to make a day of it — try some wild swimming, relax with a lakeside picnic, or simply sunbathe on the shore and soak up the alpine views.

The perfect blend of adventure & relaxation

Easy to learn, suitable for all ages, and great fun, SUPs and kayaks let you gently explore these peaceful lakes at your own pace, surrounded by nature and breathtaking mountain views. It's the perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, and fresh alpine air.

What to expect

You can reach the lake either by taking the free shuttle bus or by starting your adventure on two wheels. It’s around 3.5 miles from the centre of Morzine, and cycling along the scenic mountain roads is a fantastic way to kick off the day — with fresh alpine air, stunning views, and a real sense of adventure before you even arrive.

Your on-the-water session lasts around an hour — plenty of time to explore the lake and enjoy a fun experience on a paddleboard or kayak. We recommend arriving 10 minutes before your allocated slot (provided by our Mountain team so you can meet our reps at the activity centre, get introduced to the equipment, and familiarise yourself with the lake

Once your session begins, you’ll be provided with a high-quality inflatable paddleboard or rigid kayak, and fitted with the right paddle. The friendly centre staff will help you get started, so even complete beginners can confidently ‘give it a go’ in the calm and secure waters of the lake.

If you’d like to stay out a little longer, you can easily extend your session locally for just €10, thanks to a special concessionary rate paid directly to the supplier.

What to expect in Tignes

Getting to Tignes’ lake from our hotel in Les Brévières is easy — just hop on the free shuttle, running every 30 minutes. Once there, you can enjoy your complimentary session at the Nautical Base, where you can choose to kayak, paddleboard, or pedalo.

It’s the perfect activity to combine with one of our other Tignes adventures, such as a walk to the Eye of the Needle or our Altitude Experience, making it a fun and rewarding day in the mountains.
