white
water rafting in spain
White
water rafting really get the adrenaline
running. Rafting consists of descending
the Noguera Pallaresa rapids
in a 6-8 man rubber dinghy avoiding rocks
and capsizing.The boat, type zodiac, is
however very safe and has a great resistance
to blows. Each dingy has one or two monitors,
who advise and instruct group members to
guide the dingy through the treacherous
course with the aid of only oars.
This activity is not as dangerous as it
appears as everybody is suitably equipped
with helmet, life jacket and wet suit and
boots. In addition, all monitors are experts
and are very familiar with the river. The
rafting season is from April till September,
but the best time to enjoy the maximum effect
of this activity is May to June when the
river volume swells.
