Rafting Aosta: what you need to know to make the most out of the experience

Rafting is a river activity consisting in a descent of a mountain stream aboard a special boat, the raft. The crew, consisting of about 8 people, sails down the river and overcomes rapids and various natural obstacles they find on the way.

Before setting off, the guide offers a briefing on basic rules and participants are taught how to use paddles. Once on board, the guide gives necessary directions and coordinates the movements of the rest of the crew to move along the river.

Rafting is a sport suitable for everyone. There is no real age limit, you just need to be in shape and have good water skills. Each river has different levels of difficulty, and everyone can choose the route according to their level.
