DESCRIPTION
In one of the most enchanting places in Veneto, you’ll ride the white waters of the Brenta river amid churning rapids, waves and jumps, surrounded by a uniquely beautiful setting that will leave you spellbound. The river, calm in some sections and wild in others, the peace of the little villages dotted along its banks, the long rows of terraces, once cultivated with tobacco plants, whose dry stone walls carve up the steep slopes perched above the high Dolomite rock walls dropping vertically down to the river banks. Our guides, all licensed by the Italian Rafting Federation, will conduct you safely along this descent even if you are not very experienced. It will be hard not to share your excitement with the whole team, rowing together on this fantastic adventure!
