Full description
The word ‘routine’ has 7 letters. You only need 8 to beat it: P-A-C-K-R-A-F-T!
Try this packrafting experience for true adventurers on the Lima stream: you’ll have a great time tackling the rapids, taking a dip in a natural pool and admiring the scenery around you.
The adrenaline rush will make you forget the monotony of everyday life: try it and see for yourself!
What we will do
Please arrive 10 minutes before the time stated at the meeting point in Chifenti (LU). Once there, we’ll meet the guide, who will provide us with all the necessary equipment ( included) : wetsuit, life jacket, neoprene shoes, paddle and packraft.
We’ll take a 10-minute shuttle ride provided by the organisers, followed by a thorough safety briefing to learn how to handle the packraft. Then we’ll begin the 4 km descent, tackling a technical stretch full of thrilling rapids where we’ll put our coordination to the test.
Weather permitting, we’ll also stop along the way to try swimming in the current and take a few dips, always under the guide’s supervision.
Finally, after 2 hours on the water, the shuttle will take us back to the starting point. The activity will last a total of 3. 5 hours.
Who it is aimed at
This activity is suitable for children aged 10 and over; those under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
Please note: children aged between 10 and 14 must share a packraft with a parent. When booking, you will therefore need to select ‘double packraft’. From the age of 15 onwards, however, you may select the ‘single packraft’ option.
To take part in the activity, you must be able to swim and be in good physical condition. The maximum weight limit is 90 kg.
This activity is not suitable for pregnant women, or those with back problems or heart and respiratory conditions.
