Segway rides for schoolchildren and young people in Annecy
Strong points
A supervised activity accessible from age 14, on the shores of Lake Annecy
A Segway ride is a unique outing for a group of young people. It takes place outdoors, in an exceptional natural and heritage setting, and requires no particular physical condition. After just a few minutes, participants feel at ease and can enjoy the ride to the full.
We regularly welcome school groups, youth clubs, leisure centers, municipal youth services and associations, for groups ranging from a few participants to 100 people.
Minimum age and option for younger riders
Driving a Segway gyropod is accessible from the age of 14. For groups with younger participants, we can provide bicycles so that the whole group can take part in the outing in the best possible conditions.
What's included
Each outing includes a full briefing before departure, gradual familiarization with the bike, a helmet, and supervision by a professional Mobilboard guide along the way. The itinerary is chosen according to the age of the group and the time available.
Formats available
Discovery - 1h A short format, ideal for a first experience or a school outing integrated into a half-day trip. The route follows the banks of the lake and the Jardins de l'Europe.
Classic stroll - 1h30 The most popular format for groups: lake and Annecy's old town combined. A good balance between discovery and length of outing.
Grand tour - 2h A more complete immersion in Annecy and the surrounding area. This format is ideal for stays and event days where walking is the main activity.
Practical organization
Outings can be privatized and planned according to your schedule - morning or afternoon - which easily adapts to the constraints of schools, youth clubs and youth services. We welcome groups of up to 100 participants, with organization adapted to group size.
In case of light rain, ponchos are available. In the event of really bad weather, we'll work with you to find a suitable solution - rescheduling or adjusting the format.
