Val di Sole is a haven for many outdoor sports activities including rafting, canyoning, canoeing, kayaking and mountain biking.
Rafting is a river sport that involves navigating the waters of a river aboard a self-emptying boat, called a raft, that holds about 8 people.
A rafting guide coordinates the movements of the crew who, with the help of paddles, work together to overcome rapids and other natural obstacles along the way. For this reason, rafting is a particularly good activity for companies’ team building, which can strengthen coordination and team spirit.
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 physical condition.
Along the 28 navigable kilometers of the Noce River, there are stretches with different characteristics and difficulties, from the easiest for beginners to the most extreme for experts.
It is possible to raft along short stretches of the river or to travel the entire river to fully appreciate its every feature.
In Mezzana, Val di Sole, you have a wide choice of routes. The upper section of the Noce River is more suitable for beginners and families. Depending on your preference, you can follow along the river for 5 or 8 km.
But there are also stretches that are more challenging and navigable only by adults. These include the 13 km long rapids which were the location of international slalom kayak competitions and the 13 km route among the forested gorges of Malé. The more courageous can descend both stretches and reach Ponte Stori after about a 25 km long trip.
Rafting routes in Ossana include the 25 km from Cusiano to Dimaro and then from Monclassico to Ponte Stori. This route is ideal for those who have gone rafting in the past and want to have fun with 4th grade rapids.
Families can travel from Cusiano and cross the Mezzana rapids. After passing the Piano di Commezzadura, the route ends in Dimaro, for a total of 10 km. In the Mezzana section, the rafting center offers a transfer for children with its vehicles.
There are other possible rafting routes on the Brenta Dolomites.
From Commezzadura, rafting centers in Val di Sole organize trips on the higher section of the river, which is less challenging but still exciting. Instead, from Caldes, the rafting centers offer transportation to Monclassico, which is the starting point of another 15 km long route.
In the Val di Sole, rafting is priced from 28 to 79 euros depending on the starting location, the length of the route and the offered services. Services can be transportation to/from the river or videos and photos of the experience.
Rafting in Val di Sole is the ideal activity to celebrate any occasion such as a birthday, graduation or bachelor/bachelorette party. An original gift idea to spend a fun-filled day with the people you love.
The Noce River ranks among the best waterways in which to engage in water sports due to the length of the navigable stretch, the presence of numerous rapids of varying intensity, and the beauty of the landscapes that accompany it throughout its course.
Along the way, the river has some places where it flows really fast and is therefore navigable only by the most experienced canoeists, but the stretch that flows in the Val di Sole is the most fun and where everyone, even novices, can enjoy river sports, including rafting, hydrospeed and canoeing.

16 Aug 2023 | SUPER Integral rafting on the Noce River in Trentino
Super fantastic experience to do again as soon as the opportunity arises. Our super-professional and good guide Dodi gave us a great time. You will certainly get very wet (the water isn't warm even in August) but it's really worth it. My advice for beginners like me is to follow all the guide's commands and instructions and trust them. Another piece of advice is to take a complete change of clothes with you as it is possible to take a shower in the changing room once you have finished the tour. PS: special thanks to Dodi who, being local, also gave us lots of advice on how best to enjoy our holiday!

It was a really good river rafting and the guide in our boat was very good, funny and learned some of the commands in danish. It was very comforting to feel that the guide was very experienced. He made the trip fantastico.nWhat we think can be improved is that in the start when we had to get our equipment it seemed a bit caotic and stressfull. They did not check if everybody was there. I would also have liked to booked some pictures as it said in the booking that we could but it did not seem possible due to time, didnt know who to afsked and so on.

מאורי המדריך את כל המילים הנדרשות בעברית כדי לתת לנו חוויה בלתי נשכחת. כולנו נהננו (2 מבוגרים ו3 ילדים 8,12,16). מאורי מקצוען ועזר לנו לנווט בבטחה בנהר. זאת פעם ראשונה שאנחנו עושים ראפטינג לארץ וקצת חששני שזה יהיה יותר מדי אבל היה בדיוק באורך ובקושי המתאים לכל הגילאים שלנו. ממליצים בחום! Mauri is the best guide! It was an amazing adventure for the whole family (2 adults and 3kids 8,12,16). We enjoyed every minute and warmly recommend this experience.

It was our first time with rafting, and everything went well. They say that the Noce River is one of the best places in Europe to do this type of activity: I have no terms of comparison, but it was certainly an experience hard to forget. I would like to congratulate the Freedome staff and the organisers: they were serious, professional and easygoing. Five stars because I can't put six.

Thank you so much to the great team at X-Raft. Accepted a last minute booking the night before and we really enjoyed being in the water that we decided to go on from our basic package to do the whole 2.5hrs of rafting. Our instructor was really great too. Very funny and super knowledgable about the area and the river. Thank you again for making my day!

The breafing and the route took about 2h30 in total. In the first part we were prepared for the various commands and situations that may arise. Then we went down to the river and boarded the dinghy. Here with great skill we were guided by Bryan. Adrenaline-pumping ride!
