Once dressed, they travel with the guides in a van (5 minutes) to the entrance area to the river, where the technical and safety talk of the activity is given. The first section of the river is 6 km of calm and meandering waters, an opportunity to contemplate Cerro Fitz Roy and its satellite needles, the Andean forest, the steppe and eventually native fauna and avifauna, it is the ideal moment to make contact with the raft and practice the rowing and safety techniques explained.
The second part advances over the canyon area. After the initial rapid called “Portage”, we will find a succession of class III to III + rapids for 10 km. It is the moment of adventure and adrenaline. Once the descent is finished, a van awaits you to return to the base where you will change and enjoy a snack and a drink to recover energy.
