I’ve never tried canoeing on the river, can I try?2019-05-02T16:55:35+00:00

Ofcourse, our canoes are specially designed to allow you to have the first experience.

Is it dangerous?2019-05-02T16:54:07+00:00

No, the Adige flows calmly but it is necessary to learn how the currents lead to the valley

Who is our guide?2019-05-02T16:53:05+00:00

Both for activities in the river and in the lake, you will always be followed and assisted by one of our Safety Kayak workers, people who have followed a specialization course and which are constantly updated to assist you in the worst conditions.

Is it true that you can overturn?2019-05-02T16:51:18+00:00

Certainly yes, like on any boat, but we have a life jacket and a helmet on purpose so it’s no problem

But if I fall in the water, is it not that I remain in the canoe?2019-05-02T16:50:00+00:00

No it is not possible, because you are sitting o top of the canoe

Why the flip-flops are not recommended?2019-05-02T16:48:15+00:00

Because in the river it is necessary to be able to walk on the banks and often they are jagged and full of thorns, for this it is necessary to have shoes

Can I bring the phone to take pictures?2019-05-02T16:46:44+00:00

It is not recommended, it is better to leave it in the car because there is a risk of it getting wet
