Full description

Join an advanced rafting tour that will take you through the heart of the scenic Tyrolean Alps. Your guides have waterproof cameras that will allow them to capture the experience. Work together with your team to conquer the rapids and afterward enjoy a toast before heading back to the base camp.

Begin with a welcome and introduction to the modern white water rafting equipment before you transfer to the start of the rafting route. After a detailed safety talk, your adventure will commence. 

Make your way through the high waves near the Piburger Bridge, the narrow passages of the forest gorge, further past the Sautner Roller, and up to the Weir Plant, where can take a well-deserved break.

Next up is a key part of the route, the Boa Constructa. In order to get through this section, the whole team will need to do their part. Everyone will realize what the expression "we are all in the same boat" truly means.

Once this section of the river is mastered, you'll have conquered Ötzaler Ache as a group. From here on swimming and jumping into the water is allowed again.

Make a toast to your efforts at the end before you transfer back to the base camp. Once there, hot showers, changing rooms, and an outdoor swimming pool are all free for you to use.

    Great rafting experience with quick and exciting rapid sections, and then the constant amazing views! From several white water rafting tours this was one of my favourites. Highly recommend!
