Details:
If you want some action you will have to start
up earlier!! We go to your lodging or hotel to pick you up. Then we
pick up on the way all the equipment and the guide and we are ready to
start our trip. On the way between nice chats and mate tea we reach John's
ranch, almost at the border line with Chile.
We drive on route 258, up to a place known as 'Paraje Villegas' (70 km
- 45 miles) from there we detour for about 30 km (20 miles) until we reach
Tony's and Dario's John ranch, about 10:30hs. There we have a breakfast
because we will have late lunch and we need a lot of energy to paddle.
After setting up the whole equipment and that you are dressed up in the
dry-fit (neoprene) suit, the guide will introduce you into the paddling
techniques and safety instructions. Them we are ready to set off and
start our rafting descend. The first half an hour you will enjoy rafting
through a breathtaking canyon (velvet canyon) . from the emerald green
waters we will paddle into real white waters rapids. From stillness
into action! The welcoming rapids anticipates then good thing to come.
Then we have other called: "agujero de ozono"(ozone hole); "gritá
y llorá";(scream and cry!) "éxtasis" (ecstasies); etc..
It is going to be about two hours of fun and adrenaline in beautiful
landscapes..
