This full day programme is guaranteed to be an unforgettable day for the bride or groom-to-be, surrounded by their best friends. It is the ideal opportunity to combine a stay in Salzburg with a dash of adventure. First, we will take you to the Salzach, where we master rapids, ride on the waves and pass an impressive waterfall. Later we continue with the Almbach tour, where we finish off the day with endless jumps, swimming and fun.
Tour programmeWe pick you up at your
hotel at approx. 8:30am and take you to our base, where you get your equipment and can change. Then we will go by our bus to the river, where an introduction will be given by the guide.
On a short part of the route we will familiarise you with the character of the river and the commands on the boat. Soon we reach the "labyrinth", a blocked rapid, which demands our concentrated attention. After the infamous "railway surge", we continue on many waves through Lend. From the impressive waterfall of the Gasteiner Ache it becomes a bit more leisurely. Shortly before we get off the boat there are still some lively sections waiting. At the end we drive back to the camp, where you can shower and change. We eat lunch at the Gasthof Torrenerhof next door.
At 2pm we set off for the 2nd tour in the Almbachklamm.The course can be adapted to your individual wishes - there are easy variations where difficult places can be avoided or roped down, while the advanced (or brave) among you can also dare higher jumps. At approx. 6pm we are back in the camp where you deserve a drink. Afterwards we drive you back to your hotel.
