This experience felt authentic and far from crowded tourist routes. The guide Marta shared small insights about the geopark while keeping the focus on the activity. The balance between adrenaline and control was just right.

Challenging at times but very rewarding. The colder water actually made it more invigorating.

One of the highlights of the trip. River trekking allows you to see parts of the landscape that would otherwise be inaccessible. The group size was manageable and the instructors paid attention to everyone. It felt adventurous without being reckless.
