Rafting in El Bolsón

Would you like to experience the thrill that a good rafting trip gives you? It`s something you have to do. To begin with, you should go to a travel agency and ask for excursions. The most common rivers are Rio Azul and Rio Manso. Personally, I recommend you the fist one.

When you get to the river you have chosen, for example Rio Azul, you are provided with helmets and lifevests. And then, the tour guide gives you the safety advice you have to take into account.

This river has a grade of difficulty of three in a scale of seven. That means that is soft, but you are not going to get bored. The length of the trip depends on the strength of the river, and in the time of the year, but it takes about three hours generally.

During the excursion, the rafting guide describes you the beautiful and colored landscapes and you are explained about the different types of forest that you will find.

Approximately half down the trip, you may stop in a small beach to do snorkeling. In my opinion, this is the best thing about rafting in this river. It`s something that all the family can enjoy.

At the end, you arrive in camping “Los Alerces”, and there you are given a meal. There you can buy the photographs of the excursion, taken from the riverside by a professional photographer.

Hope you enjoy it!
