Kayak Le Batifol, in Chiny-sur-Semois, offers kayak and canoe trips in the heart of the Semois Valley National Park. From the Saint-Nicolas Bridge, several options allow you to discover the river according to your preferences: a family outing towards Lacuisine, a more challenging route towards Chassepierre, or even multi-day excursions to extend the adventure all the way to Bouillon.

This activity is suitable for beginners as well as those already experienced in paddling. All necessary equipment is provided, including a kayak or canoe, life jacket, paddles, and navigation instructions before departure. For a shorter or more leisurely outing, hourly rentals are also available on the Chiny lake.

Navigation is always dependent on the water level and permitted conditions on the Semois River. When the river is not navigable, the lake and swimming area remain a pleasant alternative for enjoying the site. A wonderful outdoor activity to discover Chiny from a different perspective, nestled between the river, the forest, and the landscapes of the Semois.
