Canoe in Valsesiavalley (Piedmont)...adrenalinic experience!
The Sesia River in the stretch of the resort Scopetta to that of Balmuccia flows between granite walls very high, around the river is found to pass in a bed of granite off only a few meters. In these gorges, made famous by their extraordinary beauty, that current creates extraordinary water and the sun filtering through the walls enhances the spectacle.
It is a path shorter than the classic and is practiced when the stretch classic there is not enough water to go down. In fact when the Sesia has a level of water such as to cover the stretch "classic", Gorges "Gole" become, due to their conformation, impractical.
Boarding is located near an old Roman bridge: on the way down you make two transfers, (you make in case of impassable rapids or very dangerous - out of the river, walking on foot on the banks and re-embark in the fast) one of which is located about half-way is very impressive, here all the water of the Sesia makes a jump a few feet in passing a gut rock off less than 2 meters.
During the descent we will stop in a pond to make the dives from a trampoline natural rock and then off to continue this fantastic experience.
A guide will lead you along the boat ensuring a great fun in perfect safety.
It is a path suitable for everyone and those who already have experience of canoe is to those who come for the first time.
This type of activity is carried out throughout the week from Monday to Sunday.
