Full description
Don’t overthink it: just let life take its course!
To go with this line of thinking, why not try a river trekking experience on the Ciuffena stream and have fun exploring the river’s course with an expert guide? You can follow the path carved out by the water and enjoy the plunge pools, waterfalls and natural pools!
You’ll see: all those overthinking thoughts will be left at the bottom of the river!
What we will do
Please arrive 30 minutes before the specified time at the meeting point in Loro Ciuffenna (AR).
Our guide will be waiting for us there and will provide us with all the necessary kit ( wetsuit and helmet) . Before we set off, we’ll have a short briefing to learn the safety rules and how best to navigate the rocky terrain.
Immediately afterwards, we’ll walk a short distance to reach the entrance to the canyon. We’ll enter the bed of the Ciuffenna stream, surrounded by the woods of Pratomagno, and set off on our adventure!
Along the way, we’ll make our way through passages carved out by the water over the centuries, past waterfalls and natural pools. We’ll walk along the riverbed and stop to take a few dips from heights of between 2 and 4 metres (optional) .
We’ll follow the flow of the water until we reach the village of Loro Ciuffenna, where our exploration of the stream will come to an end. From there, we’ll walk back to the starting point.
The activity will last a total of two and a half hours.
