Raft Building.
« Teamwork, made buoyant. »
Become the captain of your own raft and embark on a truly unique alpine adventure. This activity invites you to design and build a fully functional raft as a team, before setting out together onto the water. Combining creativity, teamwork, and outdoor exploration, it's an experience that is as rewarding as it is fun. With the support of our experienced guides, you will be provided with all the materials needed to construct your raft. Working together, the challenge is simple: build a structure strong enough to float. Once complete, your raft is launched for its first journey across one of our beautiful mountain lakes. Perfect for families, groups of friends, or corporate team-building events, raft building encourages collaboration while immersing you in the stunning natural surroundings of Gstaad and Rougemont. Whether you work as one team or compete in smaller groups, this activity guarantees laughter, connection, and lasting memories.
