Is rafting suitable for schools and youth groups?

​

Rafting for Schools and Summer Camps (GREST) in Valsesia is a safe and well-structured outdoor activity. The descents on the Sesia River are always accompanied by certified Guides who, in addition to providing an initial briefing, supply all the necessary equipment to practice rafting safely. The routes are carefully chosen based on the age and level of the group, ensuring an experience that is both controlled and highly educational.

​

Is it a safe activity for students and first-timers?

 

Rafting in Valsesia for school groups is always led by certified Guides. They guide the groups while explaining the rules of conduct and providing the technical instructions needed to tackle the descent in total safety. No previous experience is required: students simply need to be in good health and feel comfortable in the water. Furthermore, all technical equipment is provided by our center. The professional management of the activity and the careful selection of the route make rafting a highly safe experience, perfect even for those trying it for the very first time.

 

What is the best time to organize a rafting trip with school or summer camp?

​

Rafting in Valsesia runs from April to September. Spring is undoubtedly the preferred time for educational institutions, as it perfectly aligns with the end of the school year. Summer, on the other hand, is the favorite season for Summer Camps, Scouts, and all associations focused on personal growth, teamwork, and environmental awareness. Every season allows you to experience the Sesia River in a different way, easily adapting the adventure to the specific educational goals of your group.
