Looking for activities to do this Summer? Equip and BoxUp Apps have you covered! Equip have self-service stations all over the area and at the Falaise Beach in Gland. There are up to six stand-up paddle boards available AND thanks to the City of Gland, free of charge!
Many people own a paddle board nowadays as the activity has grown in popularity over the years. Here is an option for days when you don’t want to carry your paddle board and all the equipment down to the beach. Or you just want to try it out without commitment. Or, maybe you have visitors and you want to spend some time paddling together on the beautiful, clear waters of Lac Léman. Whatever the reason, it is too good of an opportunity to miss!
How does it work?
- Download the Equip App
- Create an account (credit card required)
- Go to the Stand-up Paddle Station and simply unlock one of the lockers with your phone.
Also included with your board: An ankle strap, two life jackets and a basket for your belongings. Paddles are accessible 07h – 20h everyday. There are also SUP Stations at Céligny, Founex and Rolle Beaches but at a charge. (Your first hour is free when you sign up!)
