On September 21 and 22, 2024, you can explore the Seine and its banks from top to bottom. The tenth edition of the TraverSeine, organized by the Comité départemental de canoë-kayak, invites you to discover paddle sports through initiations, events and fierce competitions on the water, alone or with others, between the Port de Bercy and the Parc nautique départemental de l'Île de Monsieur, in Sèvres.
On Sunday, courageous paddlers will take to the river on three courses, while on Saturday afternoon, from 2pm to 6pm, everyone will be able to try their hand at paddleboarding and canoeing free of charge, to get off to a gentle start. The activities are open to everyone aged 6 and over, as long as they know how to swim! An opportunity to see the Seine in a different light, in the heart of a veritable island of greenery. Environmental awareness workshops, with quizzes and giant coloring pages, are also open to the public, to discover local flora and fauna.
On the following day, you're expected to cheer on the athletes, who will be tackling either a 15-kilometre leisure course between Paris and the Hauts-de-Seine, a competition course on the same route, or a longer 26-kilometre course reserved for the more seasoned competitors. You're sure to see some great battles, thanks in particular to the large boats and pirogues expected!
Come on, into the water!
