Full description
Try canoeing for the first time with a unique guided tour .
From Arolo, you'll paddle in the company of an experienced instructor until you reach theHermitage of Santa Caterina del Sasso, a splendid monastery overlooking the lake, and the exclusive Pirate's Lair, a secret place that can only be reached from the lake.
Join us for this adventurous canoe tour, available all year round as in a Canadian canoe you are comfortably seated and do not get wet!
What we will do
The meeting point is at the selected time at the meeting point in Arolo (VA). On our arrival we will be met by theinstructor and assigned our Canadian canoe, together with paddles, life jacket and waterproof shoe covers (full equipment included in the fee).
We will have a briefing on the use of the canoe and safety rules and, after a few trials in the water, we will be ready to set off. We will paddle on Lake Maggiore following the course of the cliff in the direction of theHermitage of Santa Caterina del Sasso, a picturesque monastery overlooking the water. It will even be possible to touch the wall in which the religious complex is embedded!
On the way, we will also encounter Banksy-style street-art works and a wreck embedded in the rocks. The guide will then take us to the Pirates' Lair, a hidden place unreachable by land. We will land here for a short stop, sitting on this 'terrace' overlooking the lake.
We will then board the canoes to calmly return to Arolo. The activity lasts a total of about two and a half hours.
