Rafting

Rafting is an exciting activity for everybody which doesn’t require any past experience before hitting the rapids of the river Noce.

From May to September, when the river is at its highest level, the Noce remains one of the most popular destinations for rafting in Europe.

Before descending the river in rafts of six people, all the commands are explained in a theory lesson by each rafting guide. Everyone lends a hand in the running of the rapids by using their paddle at the request of the guide.

The various trips available allow participants to undertake a gradual and safe approach to this activity. After the first few kilometers of lively water and beautiful scenery, the first true rapids begin.

Our rafting activity is organized in Noce river, in “Sun Valley” in Trentino; our river is recognized by National Geographic as the first river in Europe and the 9th river in the world for rafting activities! It is before Zambesi too… !! Check it out.

The duration of each trip can vary depending on the water level, the crew itself, the weather conditions and other factors.
