Stag Do in France

From chic Parisian adventures to rural retreats, France can provide a myriad of activities and backdrops for your stag do.

Kayaking on Lake Annecy, the cleanest lake in Europe, can be one of the backdrops to your stag do in France. With the medieval old town of Annecy at one end, the 24km long lake is lined by verdant mountains, dotted with traditional villages and nature reserves, making Lake Annecy an impressive place to explore by kayak.

Whether you paddle across the middle of Lake Annecy or stay near the shore, the inviting turquoise waters, warm sunshine and stunning mountain surrounds might well distract you from the business of kayaking! Up above you will see many colourful paragliders gliding like birds above the Annecy lake. On your kayaking or canoeing trip, you can stop off at the Roc d’Chere and wander up the cliffs for some great, safe places to jump off the cliffs back into Lake Annecy. If that’s not your thing, enjoy the sunshine in the kayak, have a swim, or take some spectacular photos. Alpine Thrills provide kayaking trips on Lake Annecy as well as many other activities in the French Alps.
