Île de la Serre

Île de la Serre is a river island situated between the Ain and Isère rivers in the Rhône-Alpes region, featuring a 600-meter whitewater course designed for paddling sports. The course incorporates multiple technical sections that test river skills at different levels of difficulty.

The island formed gradually over centuries through natural river processes that shaped the land between the two waterways. In recent decades, the area was developed into a dedicated water sports facility to harness its natural characteristics.

The island hosts numerous water sport activities throughout the year, connecting local communities through shared outdoor recreational experiences and river-based traditions.

The site is accessible throughout the year, with peak activity during warmer months when water flow and temperature conditions are most favorable. Waterproof footwear and splash protection are recommended since you will be close to moving water and splashing.

The whitewater course uses a system of 80 adjustable gates that can modify the difficulty of each run and create different route options. This gate system allows operators to tailor the experience from beginner-friendly to expert level and change it based on water conditions.
