Rafting
The San Pedro river, close to
Valdivia, offers one of the most complex and comprehensive
rafting experiences in Chile, with rapids starting off at grade 2 and then presenting more challenging obstacles in the grade 3 and 4 range, such as La Sirenita, La Turn of the Clock and El Toro. It is best to have extensive experience. During the
adventure you can follow the routes of the old colonists of Lake Riñihue, who used to descend the river on rafts carrying pieces of raulí, lingue and other noble woods, as well as enjoy the beautiful virgin landscapes surrounding the San Pedro. It is necessary to be physically very fit because the voyage lasts close to six hours, starting at the outlet of Lake Riñihue and ending at Malihue.
The program includes a lecture on paddling and safety, as well as a lunch consisting of a barbecue on the river bank. This provides a welcome break to recover your energies and comment on the morning’s experiences.
