We shall be received at the designated meeting point located in Murillo de Gállego, approximately three hours distant from Barcelona, situated within the boundaries of the Basque Country and Catalonia. Following this, we will proceed to change into our wetsuits as per the requirements set forth by the rafting company. A fleet of company-owned vehicles will transport us swiftly to the commencement point of the river within the next ten minutes. Upon arrival, the experienced guides will provide comprehensive safety briefings and instruct us on the proper techniques required for paddling.

Upon entering the water, participants will engage in a series of practical exercises designed to familiarize them with the rafting environment. These sessions will commence with a controlled ascent followed by a relaxed exploration of the river’s dynamic currents, guided by our professional instructors who will ensure everyone remains safe throughout the journey.

The course features an intermediate level river (Class 3), requiring no prior experience. Our rafting team boasts extensive international experience, having conducted training programs in fifteen different nations. As members of the International Rafting Federation GTE Committee, we stand committed to delivering high-quality instruction and ensuring the utmost safety during every session.

As we descend the river, participants will share in a unique sensory experience, feeling the exhilarating rush of the current against their skin. The landscape we encounter will showcase the Kingdom of the Mallos, characterized by towering conglomerate rock formations, alongside opportunities for wildlife observation such as otters and beavers amidst the skies of eagles. Participants may also choose to enjoy refreshing dips along the banks of the river.

Upon reaching the designated finishing point, we will transfer back to the company’s vehicles, which will then drive us to the changing facilities where showers await. In just five minutes, we will find ourselves in the comfortable surroundings of our changing rooms, ready to cool off after our vigorous adventure. Here, we can indulge in refreshments enjoyed from expansive terraces offering panoramic views of the nearby “Mallos de Riglos.”

In conclusion, we invite participants to embark upon an unforgettable rafting expedition, combining excitement with safety.
