Rafting

Rafting is a river descent by means of a special unsinkable rubber dinghy named a raft. The crew is made up by a minimum of four to a maximum of 12 participants.
The crew takes an active part to the descent using a paddle guided by a crew member sitting on the stern of the raft. He steers and guides the raft all the way through rapids and streams.

If you wish to spend a different day out a few miles away from Rome with your friends or family, simply jump on one of our water dinghies, leave every day stress behind and let yourself be carried down valley using a river descent. The winding of the Aniene river, together with the luxuriant vegetation, the clear water and finally the charming Simbruini Mountains Park will certainly work magic all along the descent.

Rafting Power is ideal for bachelor parties as well as for hen parties. Especially suitable for team building, Rafting Power consists of a fast and thrilling descent. It is a longer lasting activity that involves you challenging the water  in very enjoyable technical manoeuvres.
Vivere l’Aniene experience and the reliable river guides will let you discover what the term surfing stands for, what diving in the rapids means, moving within the river streams, searching for the best way to descend faster than the other crews! The Rafting Power main target remains the pure fun, living moments of sheer lightheartedness dipped in nature in a healthy and safe environment.
So get ready to paddle with great energy, getting completely wet and enjoying yourself very much!
