Aare Float Trip

Float past stunning alpine scenery towards the picturesque city of Bern on a 16-seat raft with optional BBQ grill and sound system on board. The water is perfect for a refreshing swim on hot summer days where you can float alongside the boat. Accompanied by professional river guides to help navigate the rapids along the way, the trip provides a safe and fun experience for groups of friends, family and children.  This trip is avaliable as a private boat for CHF 990.- (max 14 adult seats) or individual seats for CHF 110.- per person (min 6 participants).
 

Outdoor Interlaken AG will provide all participants with life jackets and paddles. Additional equipment rentals are available for colder weather, larger groups, and fun on the water.
