If you've always wanted to be the captain of a boat, you can fulfil your dream with Active Rafting on the Kitzbüheler Ache. In a smaller boat, two or three of you will steer the boat independently, which becomes even more of a challenge in white water. Good swimming and paddling skills are therefore a prerequisite for this experience!
Tour programme- Preparation:Your starting point is our base in
Erpfendorf (Kössenerstr. 19, 6383 Erpfendorf). There are plenty of parking spots directly at the base. Please be at the meeting point on time, but there is no need to come in advance. The guide will provide you with the necessary equipment so that you can start your adventure safely. From the base, you will drive together with the guide to the
entry point into the Kitzbüheler Ache.
- Tour:Once you have arrived at the boarding point, your rafting tour can begin. To make this tour as successful as possible, it is
necessary to already have rafting experience and to know how to paddle properly. The right technique increases the fun factor enormously! It is possible to experience the wild
ride in a raft or in an inflatable canoe. As it can happen that a boat tips over, swimming skills are of great importance. The guide will of course be there in an accompanying kayak to provide assistance.
- Return:At the end of the tour, you will return to the base together with your guide. At the base, you can take off your equipment and change back into everyday clothes.
