What we will do
The meeting point is 15 minutes before the selected time at the sports field in Tresenda, a hamlet of Teglio (SO), directly on the banks of the Adda river. We will meet the guides and the rest of the group, we will be provided with all thenecessary equipment, and we will have a briefing on the safety rules and behaviour to be kept during the activity. Afterwards, ready to get on the rafts, we will set off on an adventure!
We will perform an intermediate-level descent, suitable for those who are rafting for the first time but don't want to miss out on theadrenaline and excitement of this sport. During the course we will alternate between eventful stretches, where we will test ourselves by challenging the impetuous rapids of the river, and calmer moments where we can contemplate the surrounding nature, dominated by forests and mountains.
At some specific points, we will be able to leave the rubber dinghy to dive into the uncontaminated waters of the Adda, and those who wish can try their hand at swimming in the current from one bank of the river to the other, or experience the thrill of challenging a third-degree rapid with their free body. All this, under the watchful eye of the instructors, who will ensure maximum safety at all times.
The activity lasts a total of 2 hours, including an actual 1 hour and 40 minutes on the river. At the end of the descent, we will be taken back to the rafting centre, where we can relax and, if necessary, continue the day in the beautiful Valtellina nature.
