Full description
Have you ever wanted to experience an aquatic adventure that makes you feel truly part of nature?Hydrospeed is just the thing for you!
This exciting sport combines swimming and sailing on a special floating board similar to a bobsleigh, allowing you to glide through the raging rapids of the Brembo river.
Youdon't need any experience: an expert guide will teach you everything you need to know and accompany you to experience 2 and a half hours of adrenaline and fun!
What we will do
We will meet at the time selected during the booking process in San Pellegrino Terme, in the province of Bergamo. On arrival, the river guides will welcome us and provide us with all the necessary equipment: fins, helmet, life jacket and hydrospeed board.
We will then be taken by shuttle bus to the river embarkation point, about 10 minutes away. Here we will have a briefing where the guides will teach us the basics of hydrospeed driving, swimming techniques and the safety rules to follow.
It's time! Together we will plunge into the cool waters of the Brembo, famous for its impetuous rapids and for being one of the most exciting rivers in northern Italy for water sports. We will ride the hydrospeed down the river for about 5 km, tackling the waves and jumps in total freedom.
The approximately 1-hour descent will end at the starting point in San Pellegrino Terme. Between preparation, transfers and actual descent, the experience lasts a total of about 2½ hours.
