RaftingAdventure

The Maipo river is close to Santiago, and its waters go from grade 3 in the fall-winter season to grade 4 in spring and summer. Once there you will be able to enjoy a spectacular view of the Maipo volcano, from where this river originates. At first it runs calmly, but then becomes a torrent as it descends through the valleys until it eventually forms the imposing and swift-flowing Maipo river.

Kayak

Enjoy in a unique and privileged way the natural environment of Chile. Glide through its more than 1,200 rivers of different flows, or take advantage of the calm of lakes and lagoons to contemplate the wonderful scenarios that arise at the foot of the crystalline waters in southern Chile.

Rafting Futaleufu

RaftingAdventure

The Futaleufú river is located in the midst of the indomitable Chilean Patagonia, and is considered one of the best torrents in the world to practice the sport, with rapids reaching up to grade 5. It is common for the rapids to be extremely long with waves on the descents and inevitable pitfalls that require fast maneuvers, all under pressure.
