Full description
Are you looking for an experience that is different from the usual out-of-town trips and that can give you new emotions? Soft rafting on the Serchio river is for you.
This river that flows through the plain of Lucca is in fact very calm and ideal for water activities. On board an inflatable boat and in the company of a certified guide, you will be completely immersed in nature with its colours and smells. Letting yourself be carried away by the current, you will enjoy the scenic glimpses and the clear, cool waters of the Serchio.
An unforgettable and exciting experience to share with the whole family!
What we will do
The meeting point is in Bagni di Lucca, at the meeting point indicated in the booking confirmation. Once theequipment has been handed over to each participant, we will reach the starting point of the soft rafting route with a 15-minute van transfer.
After a short briefing on safety regulations and the correct way to paddle, we will begin this wonderful adventure together. On board an inflatable boat , we will cover a distance of 6 km in about one hour and 40 minutes. Carried by the current, we will glide along the Serchio river on an easy course with calm waters and a few small rapids.
Our guide will give us the commands to actively participate in guiding the raft with paddles, each according to his or her abilities. It will be a fantastic and unforgettable experience, during which we will be completely immersed in the nature of this corner of Tuscany and be enveloped in its scents, colours and sounds.
At the end of the route, we will return by van to the meeting point, where we will have toilets and changing rooms available.
The activity lasts a total of 2 hours and 20 minutes, including transfer, briefing and soft rafting.
