RAFTING


Rafting is a relatively new sport. The name “rafting” comes from the verb "to raft" or "to surf on a raft": sport fans, in fact, test themselves on the way down of fast-flowing and tumultuous torrents on board a boat.

In U.S. this discipline comes from the ancient tradition of indians and explorers who used to ford inhospitable streams aboard adventurous canoes made of wood and covered with leather.
This tradition arrived in Europe in the ‘80s and shifted into a sport that now attracts more and more thrill-enthusiasts and those wishing to challenge the nature.
Contrary to the appearance, the way down and the overcoming of impassable rivers does not represent a dangerous sport if you are aware of special techniques on how to deal with obstacles and difficulties.

Trotter Sport.com in partnership with Discover Italy Now offers several rafting routes on the most exciting rivers and streams: a simple and affordable way for everyone to live an unforgettable river experience.
To be able to challenge this adventure is enough to know how to swim and be willing to share with the group a truly unique and engaging experience.
TrotterSport.com in partnership with Discover Italy Now and the major rafting italian schools offer different itineraries depending on difficulty level, available time and type of descent that you want to fulfill.
The tour operator dedicates children as well a tailor-made experience that, with maximum of safety, will let them live unforgettable “grown-up” emotions!
Before each down river, the guide instructs and the crew explains the operations and security measures in order to introduce even the most inexperienced to the most important techniques for river navigation.
The partecipants during the rafting day are being provided with wetsuit and shoes in neoprene, helmet, buoyancy aid and water jacket.
