Full description
If you are a lover of nature and water sports, you cannot miss our canoe tour to discover the Adda River, a waterway that flows in Lombardy and is 313 km long.
You will sail along a rather peaceful stretch, admiring the Brivio Marshes, a marshy area where various types of plants grow and where migratory birds nest. Your guide will tell you interesting facts about the place and its morphology.
You will arrive as far as the Airuno beach and here you will take a short break before returning to the starting point. It will be an unforgettable experience!
What we will do
Theappointment is in Brivio, a town in the province of Lecco, at 09:00. We will be welcomed by an AIGAE guide and a Canadian canoe instructor. Before starting the activity, we will follow a 15-minute lesson on how to canoe. Immediately afterwards, we will do a short exercise in the water.
At the end of the briefing, we will start the excursion. The loop trip on the River Adda, a total of 10 km, will take us to the Brivio Marshes, one of the area's most picturesque natural areas, characterised by very calm waters that are easy to navigate. Arriving at the Airuno beach, we will make a short stop to regain energy.
Along the way we will learn about the local flora and fauna. We will see alders, poplars, white willows, oaks and marsh birds such as herons, egrets, little grebes and royal swans. After about 2 ½ hours of paddling, we return to the starting point.
The excursion lasts a total of 3 ½ hours.
