Details
If you are looking for an adventure in close contact with the uncontaminated nature of Umbria, then you can't miss a rafting tour on the Corno river! Guided by our experienced instructors, great experts of the territory, you will explore the hidden treasures of the wonderful Valnerina directly from the river. During the tour, we will venture together to discover the spectacular gorge of Biselli and its vertical walls, carved into a mountain ridge, where you can cool off with a swim in the clear waters. Adrenaline and fun are guaranteed!
Tour programme- Preparation:
The meeting point is at our base 15 minutes before the departure time. Here you will be provided with the necessary material for the experience and, after a short theoretical explanation about rafting and an introduction on how to handle the raft, you will be ready to start the adventure.
- Tour:
In rafts with a maximum of 7 people on board, we will begin the descent. Along the first part of the river, we will cross the wonderful Biselli gorges, where we can stop for a swim and drink water from a fresh spring that flows directly from the rock. Our expert guides will make you discover the wonders of the Corno in total safety!
- Return:
At the end of the tour, one of our shuttles will take you back to our base. Here, if you wish, you can relax in the sun in our beautiful garden and bring your own food for a picnic by the river, or you can use our grills for a BBQ!

The experience was truly beautiful and engaging; the stretch of river we traveled was truly breathtaking, especially when we reached the canyon. A sincere compliment also goes to our guide, Lorenzo, a young man from Trevi, whose professionalism and skill made the experience even more enjoyable. My only complaint is about the van that took us from the end of the experience to the reception area. The door didn't close properly, so much so that a woman had to hold the handle for safety, and the driver made a U-turn in an unauthorized area. Otherwise, it was definitely an experience worth repeating!
