Hike2River is an outdoor adventure and training brand led by two passionate guides and instructors, Lou and Rémi. The team offers guided experiences and courses in packrafting, kayaking, river trekking and climbing, with selected mountain biking and combined activities also available. Its programs suit a range of abilities, from first-time paddlers learning basic skills to experienced river users seeking advanced technique or challenging expeditions.

Packraft courses focus on three areas: building navigation and safety skills on natural rivers, developing technique through repeated practice on whitewater courses, and exploring multiple rivers on trips or basecamp stays. Programs generally last two to seven days and take place in destinations across France and Europe, including the Alps, Slovenia, Spain and Italy. Guests can also choose half-day and day activities, multi-day adventures, and summer combinations such as packrafting with climbing or river trekking.

Hike2River emphasizes small groups, patient instruction, quality equipment, reuse and second-hand gear, and learning at each participant’s pace.
