Packraft in Rabland/Rablà

Packraft - Attention - Danger of addiction to white water paddling

Our Packraft - Tour homerun (difficulty level medium) is something for adventurous water rats who want to test themselves and conquer the Adige river in their own boat. With action, fun and assertiveness, we master rapids, go around obstacles and relax on calm passages.

Accompanied by one of our qualified guides, the tour begins at our rafting base in Rabland/Rablà, where the equipment is handed out. With bag and baggage, we then take the beautiful Val Venosta train (Vingscherbahn) towards the Passo Resia / Reschenpass, where we can survey the route from the train. After only 20 minutes we get off again in Ciardes/Tschars.
Arriving at the boat entrance, we unpack our packrafts (inflatable kayaks) and pump them up.
As soon as all the kayaks are ready, there is an introduction to the paddling technique and a detailed safety briefing.
Shortly after, we're off into some extraordinary, splashing water fun.

What to bring:
- Minimum age 15 years
- Swimming costume / towel
- Average physical condition
- swimming skills
- not to forget a good mood

The tour takes place in all weather conditions. Because you will get wet either way. 
Packrafting is a good way to be outside even in bad weather.

Safety:
Only a safe experience is a lasting one. That's why our guides are highly trained. We also make no compromises when it comes to equipment. It is up to date and meets all required standards.
