Discover the Ardennes during a 4-day packraft adventure
Are you looking for an intensive outdoor experience in Belgium?
During this four-day packraft adventure in the Ardennes, you combine hiking and packrafting into one unforgettable journey. For four days, you follow the Semois River, one of the most beautiful rivers in the Belgian Ardennes, surrounded by dense forests and picturesque valleys.
With a packraft – a lightweight, inflatable boat – you paddle across calm stretches and exciting rapids. Alternating with hikes along the riverbanks, you discover hidden places that are only accessible on foot or from the water.
Each evening you arrive at a different basecamp. There, you set up your tent, cook together by the campfire, and enjoy the peace of nature under a clear, starry sky.
This 4-day packraft adventure in the Ardennes is ideal for those who want more than a short outdoor trip. It gives you the time to truly immerse yourself in nature, challenge yourself, and completely disconnect from daily life.
