Detailed description

Challenge for nature and action fans: river trekking or rafting in Tuscany

One of the most beautiful places in Italy is without doubt Tuscany. Rafting and river trekking are also exciting and adventurous sports. These two things together make for an unforgettable combination! Follow the experienced and professional guides into the gorges of Torrent Lima or Cocciglia and climb, swim and paddle through the breathtaking landscape with many impressions to the forces of nature. The sporting challenge is set high, but all the more fulfilling if it is successfully completed in the end!

Rafting and river trekking in Tuscany in Torrent Lima follow the river Lima through an exciting white water course. With all the safety equipment on board and after a briefing by an expert guide, a trip in a rubber dinghy will begin, of which you will tell a long story. Descend through rocky, overhanging shores full of wild plants and untouched nature, but also through quieter spots as the river flows through milder areas. Rafting is a work as a team in a boat and therefore a great reward for your team or colleagues.

Besides rafting, river trekking in Tuscany near Cocciglia is a majestic experience. In this sport, also known as river rafting, you don't follow the water on the shore, but right in the middle of it! In this case, however, it means walking through white limestone in a fairytale blue river, under the shady roof of trees and climbing plants. This mythical atmosphere is an experience with a goose bump effect and will certainly distract you from the hardships of the hike.

Conditions

Valid on the reserved day or for 12 months after date of purchase if no date has been selected. You will receive the tour operator's details with the purchased ticket. Attention: reservation is required! The reservation can be made through sunbonoo as part of the booking process or later by contacting the tour operator directly via phone or email.

Tuscany Rafting: A Special Experience

It was the first time I rafted in Tuscany (in Italy at all). A fantastic route with many adrenaline spots. Equipment and support were optimal. I'd love to do it again!

Toskana-Rafting: Ein besonderes Erlebnis

Es war das erste Mal, dass ich in der Toskana (überhaupt in Italien) geraftet bin. Eine fantastische Strecke mit vielen Adrenalin-Spots. Ausrüstung und Betreuung waren optimal. Gerne noch mal!

River trekking: Once and never again...

I just wanted to get to know the landscape and the people. But I didn't expect it to be so exhausting and wet. And jumping down 8 metres somewhere: No thanks...

Flusstrekking: Einmal und nie wieder…

Wollte halt Landschaft und Leute kennenlernen. Doch das das sooo anstrengend und nass wurde, hatte ich nicht erwartet. Und 8 Meter irgendwo herunterzuspringen: Nein danke…

White water rafting near Florence in Tuscany: TOP!

Val di Lima is the name of this wonderful region. Sunbonoo's water sports offer is ideally placed. Nature is an extravagant backdrop that is unparalleled in Europe. 5 stars from me.

A friend of mine lives in Cocciglia

Because the river trekking offer is being held very close to my friend's house, we took part. A special kind of adventure. Almost 4 hours very close to the water and a challenge for concentration and body control. We liked it.

In Cocciglia wohnt eine Freundin von mir

Weil das Flusstrekking-Angebot ganz in der Nähe des Hauses meiner Freundin veranstaltet wird, haben wir teilgenommen. Ein Abenteuer der besonderen Art. Fast 4 Stunden dem Wasser sehr nahe und eine Herausforderung für Konzentration und Körperbeherrschung. Uns hat es gefallen.

Lima is in Tuscany ?!

Yes, because the river named Lima is meant. Before I discovered this offer on the sunbonoo site, I didn't even know that this river even existed, let alone that you can go rafting or river walks there. I really enjoyed the three hours in Lima and can therefore award 5 true stars.

Lima liegt in der Toskana?!

Ja, denn es ist der Fluss mit Namen Lima gemeint. Bevor ich dies Angebot auf der sunbonoo-Seite entdeckte, wusste ich gar nicht, dass es diesen Fluss überhaupt gibt, geschweige das man dort raften oder Flusswanderungen unternehmen kann. Ich habe die drei Stunden im Lima sehr genossen und kann deshalb 5 wahrhaftige Sterne vergeben.

River trekking near Cocciglia in Tuscany - That was great

Rafting is too hard for me. Trekking is a bit more “leisurely” - even if jumping from a height of 8 meters is not a pleasure for me. But the fantastic canyon with its wild flora and fauna make the tour a unique experience of nature.

Flusstrekking nahe Cocciglia in der Toskana – Das war Spitze

Rafting ist mir eine Nummer zu hart. Das Trekking ist doch etwas „gemütlicher“ – auch wenn das Springen von 8 Meter Höhe kein Vergnügen für mich ist. Doch der fantastische Canyon mit der wilden Flora und Fauna darin, machen die Tour zu einem einzigartigen Naturerlebnis.

ERROR!!!

I apologize, I wanted to give 5 and not 2 stars. Unfortunately, I can't change that myself ...

FEHLER!!!

Ich bitte um Entschuldigung, ich wollte 5 und nicht 2 Sterne vergeben. Leider kann ich das selbst nicht mehr ändern…

Rafting on the Lima torrent - crazy!

Rapids, shallows, Studel - these are things that give me goose bumps. On the tour here I got my money's worth. And the whole thing garnished with a beautiful landscape and a friendly crew. * * * * *
