About

Annecy (74000)

Discover the Gorges du Fier in packraft, our ultra-light inflatable kayaks, and discover a little-known area that looks like a tropical forest. This adventure in total immersion in nature will allow you to discover unique landscapes, punctuated by rapids, jumps and waterfalls. Accompanied by a certified guide who is an expert on the region, you will discover the part of this site that is inaccessible to the general public, in complete safety.
The highlights of this packraft adventure include :
- A unique and exclusive discovery of the Gorges du Fier
- An ideal introduction to whitewater packraft for thrill-seekers
- Being alone in nature 15 minutes from Annecy, even on 15 August
- An experience off the beaten track and away from mass tourism
- A descent guided by a professional
- New equipment, with single or double packrafts suitable for everyone.


The adventure begins with a hike to our riverside starting point, where you'll carry your equipment (around 7kg) in your rucksack. On site, we prepare our packrafts, available in single or double seaters, and then, following a safety briefing, we take to the water. Expect a memorable descent, alternating between gentle waves and intense rapids (class 2), with opportunities for jumps for thrill-seekers. This off-the-beaten-track escapade promises incredible panoramas.
Choose your adventure: a half-day, a full day or a two-day immersion.

    Funded by the French Environment and Energy Management Agency (ADEME) and awarded the Remarkable Initiative label for its CSR initiatives, Blue Secret embodies the spirit of slow tourism, convinced that the extraordinary lies not in exuberance but in the depth of the experience.
    We create immersive and authentic adventures on the water, off the beaten track, to get away from it all locally.
    There's nothing like packraft to (re)discover your territory in a gentle and exclusive way.
    Our experiences combine hiking and sailing, offering a respectful and ecological exploration of our rivers.
