Rafting

RAFTING IN VALSESIA

Rafting is an exciting group sport, suitable for everyone and of great aggregation. The only things required are knowing how to swim and the desire to live an experience “in nature” while having fun in the water element.

A minimum of four, a maximum of seven people plus a F.I.Raft Guide (Italian Rafting Federation) will take place on each dinghy who will give, during the descent, the commands necessary to run the dinghy.
Before each descent, the Guide will carry out a dry lesson called breifing, during which descent and safety techniques will be illustrated. Before the start, an aquatic test will be held which aims to create a first feeling with the element of Water and the things explained in the technical briefing will be put into practice.

The Sesia, which originates from Monte Rosa in Valsesia, is still a completely natural river. Its flow is mainly snowy and glacial, i.e. linked to the melting of snow and glaciers, and partially rainwater, i.e. linked to precipitation.

RAFTING IN SAFETY

Eddyline is a Sports Association registered with the Italian Rafting Federation. This is synonymous with safety for all those who decide to practice this discipline as it involves the pursuit of strict rules on navigation and safety. All the Guides and Masters have obtained the title after training courses and federal exams. Periodic technical updates as well as first aid procedures such as BLS-D must be followed. In each exit there are several dinghies that make each other safe, and if there is only one dinghy there will be 2 guides or a safety kayak on it.
