Rafting Trentino: what it is and how it works

Rafting is a river sport that involves descending a stream in an inflatable boat, called a raft, which can accommodate about 8 people. Before setting off, crew members conduct a short briefing on how to use the paddles properly. Upon boarding the raft, participants follow the instructions of the experienced guide and work together to overcome natural obstacles along the way.
Rafting is an activity suitable for everyone: there are no real age limits, you just need to be able to swim and be in good shape.
Each river has stretches with different difficulties. There are trails for both beginners and experts who want to try more extreme adventures.
At the most difficult points of the descent, rafting centers offer transfers for the youngest participants.
