Body Rafting in the Alcantara Gorges

On this body rafting activity in the Alcantara Gorges, we will explore a unique natural landscape in Sicily.

Body Rafting Details

At the designated time, we will meet at Contrada Sciara to start this body rafting experience, which involves floating down the Alcantara Gorges. The activity includes a 30-minute preparation during which the instructor will provide a safety talk and technique tips. After gearing up, we will board a vehicle to reach the gorges.

We will immerse ourselves in the landscapes of the Alcantara Gorges and enjoy the waters, observing the canyon's rock formations known for their basalt prisms, formed by magma cooling from the river water. We will navigate through 700 meters (0.4 miles) of rapids and small waterfalls.

After 1.5 hours of body rafting, we will return to the vehicle for a ride back to the starting point, where participants can change and conclude the experience.
