Umbria: A Paradise for Water Sports
Even without the sea, Umbria is a true paradise for water sports thanks to its rushing rivers. The Valnerina, in particular, is the epicenter of adrenaline, dominated by the majestic Marmore Waterfall.
Rafting: The Thrill of the Rapids
Rafting on the Nera River is the most iconic activity. Starting near the waterfall, the descent offers class 3 and 4 rapids, making it one of the most exciting and technical runs in Italy. But it’s not just about adrenaline: it’s also a unique way to admire both the raw power of nature and the engineering that has shaped the landscape. Specialized centers offer routes for everyone, from beginners to families.
Canyoning and Hydrospeed
For true adventurers, canyoning is an experience not to be missed. Immersed in wild streams, you’ll descend through rocky gorges, slide down natural water chutes, and rappel along waterfalls. Activities such as hydrospeed (riding the river on a water bob) and river adventures provide different but equally thrilling perspectives of the Nera River Park.
Adrenaline and Nature in Valnerina
If you’re looking for a weekend filled with action and unspoiled nature, Valnerina is your destination. And don’t miss the spectacular Tibetan Bridge of Sellano—an extra rush of adrenaline suspended in mid-air.
