River Rafting for Families
Description
An exciting activity for everybody which doesn’t require any past experience before hitting the rapids of the river Noce. The "classic" path of the river Noce, ideal for families: from Monclassico to Cavizzana. Possibility of descent for underage boys (from 6 to 14 years) with compulsory transfer of the central section of about 1 km (using the means of transport of the Center). From May to September, when the river is at its highest level, the Noce remains one of the most popular destinations for rafting in Europe. Before descending the river in rafts of six people, all the commands are explained in a theory lesson by each rafting guide. Everyone lends a hand in the running of the rapids by using their paddle at the request of the guide.

We had a great experience with rafting by Trentino Wild. Our instructor ignacio was very helpful and very responsabele. Our doughter was very anxious and he helped her great. We can really recommend this trip. Maybe we have two advices: 1) Be clear about the different tracks in advance. Now at the end of the ‘first’ track we got the offer to continue for an extra 15,- euro’s per person. We really enjoyed our trip so we were happy to continue it, but it would be better to inform your guests in advance. 2) it was great, but it was also very hot and intense. Maybe it’s possible after the first track to hand out bottles of cold water. Our instructor Ignacio was so kind to share a ‘sip’ of his water, but it would be better to organise this. Besides these two advices, we had a great experience with our family and friends. Thanks again! 🙏
We went rafting with my family two days ago and it was a fantastic experience. From the moment we arrived at the company, the welcome from the guides was warm. The explanation of the activity was clear from the beginning and the experience was really fun. We want to thank our guide in particular, Mauro, who, in addition to making us feel safe, was friendly and engaging. We will definitely be back soon!
After wanting to do this experience for a long time, I finally did it in the company of my two children, Francy and Edo. It was very fun and adrenaline-filled. A special thanks to our guide BRUNO who accompanied us, indicating the maneuvers to perform for a safe descent. Recommended experience.
Family rafting done with our 8 and 10 year old children. Bruno was a super nice guide, clear and made sure the children felt safe and had fun. Definitely recommended!
The rafting experience is certainly exciting and fun... as long as everything goes well. Unfortunately, in my case, I fell into the water and the current dragged me, making me hit the river rocks repeatedly. I sustained extensive contusions and bruises on my legs. I believe that the risks associated with a fall are not explained with sufficient clarity before departure and that this is a fundamental aspect. Furthermore, after the accident, I would have expected at least a minimum of assistance and first aid from the guide or the staff, which unfortunately did not happen. I advise anyone who wants to try this experience to be aware that, in case of a fall, the rocky riverbed can make it much riskier than it is made to seem. I risked breaking my leg Highly unrecommended for children
Gentile Alice, le auguriamo innanzitutto una pronta e completa ripresa: siamo sinceramente dispiaciuti per quanto le è successo. Appena informato dell'episodio, il nostro responsabile dell'attività di rafting l'ha contattata telefonicamente per ricostruire la dinamica e accertarsi delle sue condizioni: davanti a un imprevisto non ci sottraiamo al confronto. In quell'occasione lei ci ha riferito che la lezione teorica era stata chiara, che il recupero è avvenuto in tempi rapidissimi e che ha ricevuto assistenza dalla propria guida. Subito dopo il recupero, la guida ha individuato il primo tratto in cui fosse praticabile un approdo sicuro per farla scendere: nell'acqua in movimento non si sceglie liberamente dove fermarsi, si opta per il primo punto accessibile che non comporti un pericolo aggiuntivo per nessuno. È una valutazione tecnica per cui le nostre guide sono specificamente preparate — Trentino Wild non è soltanto un centro rafting, ma ospita al proprio interno un centro di formazione professionale per la sicurezza e il salvataggio in acqua, dove certifichiamo guide e operatori del settore. Sull'informazione relativa ai rischi una precisazione, non per polemica ma per correttezza verso chi legge: la natura del fondale, l'eventualità di una caduta e la condotta da adottare sono illustrate sia nelle condizioni generali di contratto sia nel briefing che precede ogni discesa. C'è però un aspetto che chi lavora sul fiume da decenni conosce bene: la stessa discesa non viene vissuta allo stesso modo da due persone diverse. Preparazione fisica, confidenza con l'acqua, aspettative costruite prima di partire e semplicemente lo stato d'animo di quella giornata cambiano radicalmente la percezione di ciò che accade. Sullo stesso identico percorso riceviamo commenti opposti: c'è chi al termine del Power ci dice che si aspettava rapide più impegnative, e chi al termine del nostro percorso per famiglie racconta di aver vissuto un'esperienza molto più intensa di quanto immaginasse. Nessuna delle due impressioni è sbagliata, e nessuna descrive il fiume meglio dell'altra: descrivono due persone diverse. Il nostro compito è fare in modo che l'informazione arrivi con la stessa efficacia a chiunque, e in questo senso il suo riscontro ci è utile — lo stiamo già impiegando per rendere ancora più esplicito, durante il briefing, il riferimento a cosa comporta concretamente una caduta. Quanto al "sconsigliatissimo per i bambini", non ci limitiamo a dissentire: lo smentiamo ogni stagione, accompagnando con orgoglio famiglie, scuole e gruppi dai 6 anni in su su percorsi calibrati in base a difficoltà e portata del fiume. Le cadute restano episodi del tutto eccezionali rispetto al numero di persone che accompagniamo ogni anno. Il rafting resta uno sport all'aria aperta in un ambiente naturale: comporta un rischio residuo che non può essere annullato, ma che riduciamo al minimo attraverso l'informazione, le dotazioni tecniche e la competenza delle guide. Le auguriamo una pronta ripresa e speriamo di rivederla sul fiume. Vincenzo Minenna — Trentino Wild
A truly very beautiful and well-organized experience for a family with two children. We arrived and participated in an initial briefing where all safety rules are explained and all necessary equipment is provided. But the biggest thanks go to Max, a special and super nice guide.
Super experience and Sebastian was a nice guide who guided us safely and securely across the river. Definitely worth repeating.
I am very happy because I met such positive people with a super complete organization, and everyone is attentive, expert, and dedicated to their passion: adventure sports immersed in nature. From the moment of my arrival, I was warmly welcomed at the reception; the people are fantastic. And the drivers are so kind and helpful! Furthermore, Camping Dolomiti and the offers it proposes make the stay even more pleasant and greatly simplify the vacation and the carrying out of activities! Highly recommended 100%! A special piece of advice for the river: don't forget a big smile and let all negative things be carried away by its waters, and may every activity be incredible!
We had a great time; Rodrigo was very good and kind. We had fun and they were extremely professional and precise. N.B. We forgot our shoes and we found them again. Top
Awesome guide, beautiful river, and a great family experience.
