Full description

Together with expert guides , you will spend 2 hours on board the raft. Paddle after paddle, you will overcome the rapids and make your way to the spectacular Biselli gorges, where you will be astounded by the sheer rock faces overhanging the river.
One thrill after another in anincredible adventure of sport, nature and fun!
What we will do
We will meet in Serravalle di Norcia (PG ) at theformer railway station, now converted into a reference point for outdoor activities in Umbria and Valnerina. There we will meet the guides and the rest of the group and all together hold a preparation briefing.
We will be provided with all thenecessary equipment and given a short lesson on basic rafting techniques. After that, we will board the rafts and off we go on the adventure!
We will sail along the River Corno, one of the main tributaries of the River Nera, which runs through the heart of Umbria and Italy. We will cross narrow stretches between rocky walls where the water flows impetuously, and open stretches where the flow calms down and you can contemplate the panorama and perhaps enjoy a dip in the crystal-clear waters.
Then we reach the Biselli gorges, where the imposing overhanging rocks and caves carved out by the water make for an enchanting landscape. Here we can stop at a small beach set among the rocks and quench our thirst with pure water from a natural spring.
Thus, between one rapid and the next, after two hours of rafting we will reach the end of the route and return to the base with the vehicles provided by the sports centre. Including briefing and transfers, the activity lasts approximately 2.5 hours in total.
