Description

Challenge your limits with an exciting rafting experience on the Corcovado River. Enjoy breathtaking views of the natural surroundings while navigating through thrilling white-water rapids!

Corcovado River Rafting

Upon booking, you may select between a 13-kilometer (8-mile) or a 22-kilometer (14-mile) rafting course. Both options come with an English-speaking guide, all necessary gear for the activity, and a light snack or picnic lunch.

Half-day rafting (3-4.5 hours)

We will begin at the base camp and proceed to the river by vehicle. Upon arrival, a brief safety briefing will be conducted before we embark on our rafting adventure!

This rafting tour on the Corcovado River covers a distance of 13km (8 mi) over approximately 2 hours. During this moderate path, expect to navigate through class II and III rapids while immersing yourself in the stunning landscape of the Andes Mountains.

The trip concludes near the cement bridge crossing the Corcovado River, where we will treat ourselves to some hot beverages, sponge cakes, and local sweets known as "facturas". Afterwards, we'll return to the base camp.

Departure times: available at 10 am and 2 pm

Full-day rafting (6-7.5 hours)

Opting for the full-day adventure, we will also gather at the base camp and travel to the Río Hielo region to tackle the rapids of the Corcovado River.

After receiving a brief orientation, we'll embark on the longest rafting route in Argentina. This leg takes approximately 4 hours on a 22-kilometer (14-mile) route with moderate to high difficulty. Brace yourself to conquer class III and IV rapids!

Midway through our excursion, we will pause for a picnic lunch featuring a steak sandwich, a piece of fruit, a sweet treat, and a bottle of water.

Once we recharge, we will continue rafting until we reach the Carreleufú footbridge. Following this, transportation will be arranged back to the base camp.

Departure time: scheduled for 10 am
