Rafting on the Adige River in Verona Past Historic Bridges

Rafting on the Adige River in Verona gives you the city from the water, past its bridges and old walls, in about three hours. It mixes a little adventure with a little history and suits all ages and abilities.

At the rafting base you meet the guide and hear a safety briefing, then put on a life jacket, take a paddle and set off on 8.5 kilometres through the city. The guide tells how the river shaped Verona's history and architecture. Three gentle white-water sections break up the calm stretches.

The last part is a friendly 10-minute raft race, a cheerful end to the trip. The tour finishes in Verona, close to the riverbank.

• Expert rafting guide, life jacket, paddle and dry bag

• Pickup from the San Fermo bus stop, or a transfer back to the start if you came by car
