Full description
In the heart ofUmbria, between Norcia and Cascia, in a natural setting of incredible beauty, flows the River Corno. Its cool, bubbling waters await you for a fun rafting descent!
On board the raft , you will let yourself go with the current, passing through impetuous stretches with rapids to be tamed by paddle strokes and calmer stretches, where you can catch your breath and contemplate the surrounding landscape.
Together with expert guides, you will enjoy this 1-hour rafting trip, discovering a beautiful side ofUmbria, hidden in the green woods of the Valnerina and ready to give you endless emotions!
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. We will be welcomed by our guides, who will hand us thenecessary equipment and prepare us for the descent, teaching us the basic techniques of rafting and pointing out all the safety rules.
After that, we will board the rafts in groups of up to six people plus the guide and set off down the Corno River. We will pass through a particularly scenic and richly vegetated stretch, where the river flows at times narrow and lively and at times open and calm, allowing a view of the mountains framing the valley.
We will have fun passing the rapids and , if the flow and conditions of the river allow it, we might even dive in and experience the thrill of swimming in the current, always under thewatchful eye of the guides!
After an hour of splashing and laughing, we will return to base with the means provided by the rafting centre. Including transfers and preparation, the activity lasts a total of 1.5 hours.
